Wooden Swings – meditate a while in child-like suspension

Often a defining memory of childhood, the wooden swing is much more than a plank of wood, suspended (often inadequately) from the tree at the end of the garden – wooden swings embody the innocence and playful joy that we long to keep a hold of as we enter adulthood. Is there anything more endearing than seeing young children gently oscillate themselves on wooden swings?

But let’s not be hasty. After all, when we happen to walk through the park are the wooden swings not invariably found stationary; their ropes supporting the weight not of young children, but of adolescents struggling to come to terms with the complexities of life. A place of meditation and of contemplation, wooden swings – while they may appear designed for children – are in fact enjoyed by ages.

With a number of high-quality wooden swings available, Ropes Direct are a company who pride themselves on their well designed products; allowing young and old swingers (no pun) alike to enjoy the therapeutic pleasures of pendulum-like motion.

Perfect for being suspended from trees, the solid oak wooden swings from Ropes Direct are crafted from English-grown oak. Lightly sanded, these wooden swings are able to gently age with use, gradually taking on the appearance of the wooden swings you used to enjoy when you were a child – old, weather-worn wooden swings that seemed somehow ageless.

Ideal for their wooden swings, the hemp rope from Ropes Direct makes for a long-lasting, durable suspension solution, and is available in a variety of lengths. Simply throw the rope over the bough of the tree and pass the tails through the spliced loops and your wooden swings are good for use.
