The Swing Made for Adults

Babysitting our kids is what we parents can’t escape from. When summer begins, there is one thing our children think of- playing outdoors! And what do we do? Babysit them while they’re having fun under the sun. Isn’t it about time we have fun with them, too? Admittedly, we don’t have our children’s energy and strength. For stressed-out adults, fun is sitting around doing nothing more strenuous than talk. Make that sitting on a swing made for adults and then you’re speaking my language. 

Children are not the only ones who love swings. The grown up version of a swing is available from Gorilla Playsets. It is a wooden swing set made especially for grown-ups. It is actually a bench and you and your husband can fit in it comfortably. A lazily swinging seat makes for a leisurely conversation. When you are around with small kids too many hours in a day, you always wish for an adult to talk to. Relaxing in a  backyard swing with your spouse will give you a chance to focus on each other because it’s the kind of conversation that allows no distraction from a blaring television. It may be a cliche, but parents need to communicate in order to have a good relationship. The only other thing you have to think of when you are on that swing is keeping a watchful eye on the children. But parents are multi-taskers, so it’s not that hard to do. 


Of course you can also share your  swing with somebody other than your hubby. You can invite a friend over for some serious girlfriend bonding without neglecting the little ones. If she has her own kids, make it a play date with your children. Make it a regular routine and you won’t feel you need to catch up with your friend’s life.
Since we can’t escape keeping an eye on our children, make babysitting enjoyable by making it your chance to relax while they are having their more rambunctious way of having fun.
