How to Build a Tree Swing

3 hours
$45

Difficulty: Easy to moderate

There are few parts, but cutting hardwood can be tricky, and hanging the swing is a job for an adult.

All kids want to fly, and every time they ride on a swing they get closer to that Peter Pan moment. But you don’t need a whole playground to feel the spring breezes swoosh by. All you need is a seat, a rope, and a sturdy tree.

Making this swing requires few tools, and all the hardware needed to hang it can be found at your local home center. In one morning, you can put the parts together, get the rope in place, and start your magic ride!
