Abstract
A foldable swing set includes a crossbar whose opposite ends are supported by pairs of legs. Each pair of legs is secured to the associated end of the crossbar by a bracket which forms sockets sized to slidably receive the upper ends of the legs. Each leg is rotatably and slidably secured to its bracket socket enabling the leg to be swung perpendicular to the crossbar and telescopically received in that socket to help support the swing set in its erected position and to be withdrawn from that socket and swung parallel to the crossbar in order to fold the swing set into a compact package.
