Nest swings

With a nest swing you can transform a children's playground into an adventure playground. Regardless of whether it is a boy or a girl, children feel very comfortable in a nest swing. This play equipment, also known as a bird's nest swing, has a hanging seat with which children can swing freely back and forth. And just like a real bird's nest, babies and toddlers in particular find their place in this swing. Sometimes the swing is so large that adults can enjoy the swing experience with a small child. However, make sure that babies are never left unattended in a nest swing. Small children who can already crawl are at risk of falling out and injuring themselves.

Swings as a shared experience

A shared swing experience is something completely different than an individual one. Swings.

Relaxation and fun with a nest swing

The hanging ropes are made of either steel or plastic and usually have a load capacity of 100 kg. If the seat is closed, the swing can also be used by younger children. A nest swing should be height adjustable. If the swing is used as a baby swing, the distance to the floor should be less than one meter, but for older children it can be more. Swings of this type are very easy to care for; the seat cover should be washed every now and then; dirt can often be removed with a damp cloth. Otherwise, a nest swing is very weather-resistant. Harsh UV radiation can be a problem. Unused swings should therefore be covered with a tarpaulin.
