Playground transfer loop for connecting a climber and slide

A playground rocker provides a rigid platform with lateral side edges suspended from side rails extending along the lateral side edges of the rigid platform. The rigid platform is suspended using broad flexible belts extending along substantially full lengths of the lateral side edges of the platform with the upper edges of the belts wrapped around the side rails and lower edges attached or wrapped along the lateral side edges of the platform. The broad flexible belts allow the rigid platform to sway side to side in a direction generally perpendicular to the side rails.

Playground platform rocker

A full body swing includes a broad flexible belt having a width extending between opposed front and rear ends of the swing and a length extending between opposed left and right ends of the swing, where the left and right ends are attached along their widths to an upper frame to suspend the flexible belt along a belt axis. In one embodiment, the flexible belt supports a seat section for a child to sit where movement of the seat section occurs along the belt axis of the flexible belt and is facilitated by alternating rigid and flexible sections of the belt along the belt axis.

Sway playground swing

Playground glider

A playground glider swing is provided that allow one or more users to glide while standing on a rigid board and while grasping a rigid crossbar to assist with creating opposite momentum between the crossbar and the board. The users may stand on opposite ends of the crossbar to provide back and forth movement in a gliding motion. In this respect the present invention may be safely used by one or more children in a playground environment.

Standing playground glider

A playground swing that allows the caregiver to sit within a supportive swing seat while the small child sits on the caregiver's lap while facing the caregiver with their legs wrapped around the hips of the caregiver. The caregiver's legs are free to hand from the swing seat allowing them to pump their legs to provide a swinging motion to the swing while the child's back is supported by a backrest opposing the caregiver's seat allowing the caregiver's arms and hands to be free to interact.
