Felix Play Set - Baby Swing Seat & Climbing Ladder

This Felix set tackles exactly that. It combines the enclosed Felix Baby Swing Seat, an indoor swing for kids from 6 months, with the Felix Kids Climbing Ladder for children from 3. One suits gentle swinging for the youngest, the other a climbing challenge for a bigger child, and both hang from the same kind of anchor.

The enclosed baby seat suits children from 6 months to about 3 years and holds up to 36 kg. The climbing ladder suits ages 3 and up to 60 kg, and measures 40 by 150 cm with five rungs. Both hang on adjustable rope, each for one child at a time.

The two pieces cover two stages. The enclosed seat cradles a baby for gentle, held swinging from 6 months, while the wobbly five-rung ladder gives a child of 3 or more a real climbing challenge. Having both means one child moves up from one to the other, or siblings use each at once.

Each piece hangs on its own wooden rope locks, nylon straps and carabiners. Anchor them to a structural ceiling joist or a rated frame, never plasterboard alone, and set them far enough apart that a swinging baby is clear of the ladder. Leave a soft, clear landing area under both.

Both are birch plywood and beechwood with a non-toxic lacquer, BPA-free and lead-free, sanded smooth with rounded edges. The enclosed seat holds 36 kg with a front bar and crotch strap, and the ladder holds 60 kg. Only one child should be on a piece at a time.

Check the knots, rope locks and carabiners before use, and confirm both overhead anchors are solid. Keep the baby's swinging gentle, put a soft surface under each piece, and stay close, never stepping away while a baby is in the enclosed seat.

Bought together they cost less than separately, and they set up an indoor spot that suits a baby and an older sibling at once. As the younger child passes the seat, the ladder is already there for the next stage, and each piece still hangs alone if you rearrange the room.

Babies and older children both need to move, but in different ways. Swinging soothes a baby and builds early balance, while climbing gives an older child strength, coordination and a safe outlet for the urge to scale things. Together they keep active play going indoors whatever the weather.

It should. The baby seat covers roughly the first three years, then the ladder carries a growing, climbing child to 60 kg through the primary years. Both are solid wood on adjustable rope, built for daily use, so the set rarely sits idle in a house with children of different ages.
