Molly's Swingset Plan

If you're in the market for a tall 3 story, duel swing arm, do-it-yourself playset plan, you are in luck.  Molly's playset has everything besides the kitchen sink to keep children moving and interacting. 

Molly's Swingset is an expanded and re-imagined version of our Red Summit swing set plan.  At the ground level, you'll find two, 12' swing set extensions that allow up to 24' feet of room to install swings, trapeze bars, climbing rope or anything else you can think of.  There is also the ability to insert monkey bars.

Also at ground level, right in the middle is a sand box.  The 2nd story has three ways in and out and is the perfect spot to install a slide.  The 3rd level grants access to six 14" x 21" windows, as well as a small balcony overlooking one of the swing-set extensions.

With a total of over 100 square feet of play space and loaded with fun ways to interact, the 14x29 Molly's Playset plan is the perfect DIY playground structure!
