Those of us who don’t have kids don’t know the ins and out of local playgrounds–although we’re lucky to have contributors who [fill that void](/blog/kids/10-playgrounds-with-sprinklers-where-kids-can-cool-down-this-summer) to an extent–so it was pretty surprising to hear from a young family yesterday who recently moved to the neighborhood that our area apparently isn’t chock full of swings.

Swings! I loved swings as a kid so much–particularly twisting the chains as tight as I could, kicking off, flying all over the place, and often colliding with the side of the swing set–that my parents made me get bangs to hide all the bruises I gave myself. No kid should be without swings (and a supervising adult to make sure they don’t follow my example)!

It’s not exactly ideal playground weather yet, but for when it warms up a tad, help a family out–where’s your favorite place to have a swingin’ good time in Ditmas Park?
