As fads come and go new toys will always replace the old ones in popularity. Each new wave of toy or plaything becomes boring and is switched out for the next best thing but there are some toys that never get old. Swing sets are an irreplaceable part of childhood, nothing can stand in for the unparalleled feeling of flying through the sky. Red wagons are another toy that just can’t be replaced. Giving your child a wagon to pull their things around in is not only easier for them but can easily make them the envy of their friends with such a unique toy.
Schools and playgrounds are popular places for swing sets but having one for your yard can be a great way to get your child into exercise and playing outside but will give them something they can do with their friends on play dates. It can teach valuable lessons like working together and taking turns as they play and it will also help to keep them away from the TV or computer and help them to understand that being outside can be just as fun. Swing sets don’t have to be expensive or fancy either, having a plank or tire affixed to a tree is often enough.
Red wagons have been a childhood staple for years. Children with red wagons have something they can pull their toys around in, an impromptu earth mover at the beach or even a quick mode of transportation if they get tired. A red wagon makes a great hand me down generational toy, letting kids know the value of passing on something useful to their own kids one day. Despite how quickly fads can change, there are some toys that never get old.

in my backyard, we have three big old trees, my husband took advantage of it by putting a classic swing set that my children and even me enjoy.
too bad MG didn’t have one of those red wagons. too late for her now. nagdadalaga na.
I would have loved a garden with a swing set…the kids get to enjoy them at the playground across the street…
i would love to have one of these, too! but i guess, i must move to a place where i can put my garder, first 😉
they really are classic and the kids will forever enjoy them.
I love the classic toys more than today’s electronic ones but sad to say RJ didn’t experience riding a red wagon because we don’t have lawn or backyard where she can play and drag such toys. 🙁
Classic, I remember seeing those type of cars even before pa on old old movies, and of course we used to have that too when we were little. 🙂
Classic toys are undeniably still appealing to us especially to kids. Even though there are lots of toy gadgets released, it is still fun to play with those old toys that you can share with your playmates.
I’m shocked at how timeless a lot of toys are these days. With the evolution in technology and video games, a lot of these toys have been time test.
