I have a special needs granddaugher. She is ten years old and very tall. What do you recommend for her in the swings

Hello! I bought this for my disabled sister she is 13 and tall too. The teenage full support swing works great for her. If you get that one it should last your grand daughter a while. Also couldn't help but notice your last name was Allison, that is my mother's maiden name too!

My daughter enjoys the swing, my one complaint is that there is a pommel between the legs that you cannot see in the pictures. Difficult to get my girl in and out of the swing for that reason. Perhaps your granddaughters height will be a help with that.

We have snow on the ground right now, but would say between 7 and 7.5 feet high. Our son who is almost 10 and has autism loves the swing, as he can go pretty high. He loves sensory movement and it has been working well for his needs.

To answer your question. I really enjoy my metal swing that I bought through Amazon. I like it so much I'm about to buy two of the rocking chairs that matches it. I will tell you I purchased some cushions to go with the swing, just some added comfort.

We bought this swing for our infant son who weighs approx. 10 lbs and the straps on our swing will soon be too tight since there is no room to loosen them any further. I suppose it's possible that we both bought swings with straps that are too short. I plan on contacting the manufacturer to see if they can send new straps.

Generally, swings work best when each leg is of equal length. If your tree limb is horizontal, it should work ok. Using a tree limb can be risky, as the limb may break. Also, girdling the limb may kill the branch. A strong, sturdy, horizontal limb, demonstrated to carry at least 5 times the weight of the child without signs of strain, and pierced by anchor hooks double-bolted at the top, may be effective. This does NOT imply any warranty or assurance on my part - use at your own (and your child's) risk.

Don't worry about the swing . Worry about the pine tree. You may need longer chains. Pine trees are brittle,tend to snap.

I would suggest getting the Gymnastics Expandable Junior Training BarZ-Athletic (17)It can hold more weight and your child can use it longer. If she is 95 lbs, she may only get to use it for another year before she outgrows it. My daughter is 7 and so she has some time. I am sure that I will buy the bar above when she is 10 or 11. Good luck!

If you put it in the fully reclined position it should be ok, they will just be tiny in it. It will only rock once they are strong enough to kick their legs and rock it. You may want a swing for when they are younger now that I think about it. I would refer to their website to see what they say. We also had a Mamaroo that we put her in to nap, we used the Baby Bjorn more when were eating or showering. She's a year this week and I still put her in the Bjorn when she has her bottles.

Unfortunately, no. It would be too uncomfortable for the swings. Not too heavy.

The weight restrictions are listed for the individual pieces. The ladder attachment is probably best for 4-5 year olds but the swing is good for all ages. Height restrictions are based on the amount of leg room provided by the positioning. You need good clearance on both sides of doorway opening--I would say at least 5 ft on each side.

My granddaughter is two so we didn't get the infant swing. Also my son set the swing set up where it only gets partial sun so it doesn't get hot. The swing set is very well made and my granddaughter loves it. Swings are adjustable so she will be using it until she is 6 or 7.

My step daughter is about the same height and fairly new golfer, too. She really likes the clubs and they have helped her improve. The shaft length has worked well for her.

We love this swing. We had no problem setting it up with a couple of Caribinders You can get them at the hardware store they clip onto any eye hook in the swingset or a ceiling beam. Ours is actually indoors, since we use it for our autistic son. We keep ours about a foot and a half off the ground and it works great.

Diana, the swing is designed to accommodate babies from 5.5 to 30 lbs., so I would imagine that a baby, who begins sitting at, say, 6 months, would be able to still enjoy the swing, although I don't know for how many more months. Again, it will depend on his weight first, and then, upon how contented he is when in it. I would certainly make sure that the five-point harness is engaged! My daughter and son-in-law are really ejoying this gliding swing. Sometimes little David sleeps better in it than in the bassinet, but he is just six weeks old. Hope that helps a bit.

you can attach it to an exciting swing set. I did that for my daughter and she is 98 pounds

Yes. They would be a good fit. My grandaughter and friends have had many activities on hers.

That's true but the ropes are pretty long and unless the swing set was way above the ground, it would not work too well. Ours is in a tree and the grandkids were thrilled with it when they came for Thanksgiving and gave it a great workout...very sturdily made.
