    Hi Welcome to Swings ForToddlers To Teens
    We have been manufacturing IRISH MADE children’s play equipment since 1999 and can say with confidence we have the VERY BEST.

    We believe a swing unit is a long term investment for your family and should be there to see all your children grow from toddlers to teenagers, this is why we use the heaviest framing you will find on the market 4 x 4 and 6 x 4 using a combination of Scandinavian Red Wood,Douglas Fir and Scandinavian Pine for maximum strength and durability.
    For the price of 1 short family break you could have a lifetime of entertainment for your children.

    We have an extensive choice in design something to suit every budget. As manufacturers we can custom build units with customers own specifications.
    Over the years we have seen a lot of outsourced play equipment coming to the market so to give customers the choice we have added the ones we think are of the highest quality to our shop with flat pack and DIY modules been an option.

    We have a huge range available on our website: STT Swings.com

    That sand & water table is a bit messy but my word, our kids are getting hours of play from it. They absolutely love it. Worth picking one up, especially with all this good weather when you don’t mind them getting wet!

    getting the kids under a few big umbrellas in the garden is a great way to keep them occupied for ages. Its keeps them in the shade too. Ours have been at this most days for ages!!!

    They have a Prince & Priness Palace in Funtasia in Drogheda until the end of August.

    It is adorable and our girls absolutely loved it when we went this week.

    The children start off by picking either a dress or a prince outfit. We had 3 girls with us, aged 3, 6 & 7 and unsurprisingly, they all wanted to be Elsa from Frozen. Thankfully, they had enough dresses to fit them all and in their sizes.

    Next, Snow White and Cinderella take the girls over to the make-up and hair section – with big mirrors with lights all around them – and they put their hair in a princess bun and put a little bit of make-up on them. (Its just a bit of blush, gloss and nail polish).

    Then they sprinkle fairy dust on them and get them to make a wish.

    Next, they go through the red velvet curtains and are met by another princess, who teaches them how to do Princess things like courtsy, sing and pose. She then gives them each a gift and they go through to the studio for a photo.

    They get their photo taken while dressed as a princess and with a special background – so it looks like they are standing in front of a Pumpkin coach when the photo comes out.

    The whole thing costs between 19-25 euro and takes about an hour.

    It is so sweet and our girls really really enjoyed it. All day afterwards, they were running around showing off their princess bun and nail polish.

    It’n only on until the end of August and there’s no need to book, you can just walk in for it.

    Perfect on a rainy day!!
