Bring the best of the playground right to your backyard with one of these great toddler swings. Whether you want to hang it from an existing swing set or have a sturdy branch that is just begging for a swing, these options are sure to thrill your kiddo.

Best Toddler Swings
There are few childhood joys as pure as soaring through the air on a swing. And while it may take a while for your kiddo to learn to pump by himself, all the laughs and giggles are proof that many older babies and toddlers love being pushed on an indoor or outdoor swing. But why limit it to the playground? There are tons of great options that will work in your backyard, whether you want to attach them to an existing swing set or use a sturdy tree branch to your advantage. For safe options in a variety of price points and styles, read on:
TIP: If you’re attaching your swing to a tree branch, consider ordering a Tree Swing Hanging Straps Kit that will help make sure everything is safe and secure.

Best Little Tikes Toddler Swing: Little Tikes Snug ‘N Secure Swing
Recognize this one? We bet you do! That’s because it’s oldie but a goodie. And, really, it’s no big surprise it’s so popular: It’s safe, fun, and the price is definitely right. We love that it includes both a T-bar and safety shoulder straps, which can also be stored away under the seat once your kiddo is old enough to swing without them. (You can also pick it up in blue instead of pink, if you prefer!)

Best Plastic Toddler Swing: Step2 Infant to Toddler Swing Seat
This Step2 seat is another classic option! The bucket seat design, meaning it slopes down toward the back, adds an extra safety layer and also makes it comfy to sit in. Also nice: The clips on the outside of the t-bar are easy for parents to open, but far enough away from kiddo’s little hands.

Best Saucer Swing: Odoland 24 inch Outdoor Saucer
Saucer swings are all the rage and for good reason—they are so fun! Most can also fit two kids at a time so if you have littles over age 2 or 3 (or old enough to be trusted to sit down without a strap), this is a great outdoor swing option.

Best Grow-With-Them Toddler Swing: Ancheer 3-in-1 Toddler Swing Seat Infant to Teens
We know, we know, it’s hard to believe there will ever be a time when your toddler won’t need to be strapped into his or her swing. But, believe us, that time will be here before you know it…and you’ll still want to use this swing! The 3-in-1 design starts off with a t-bar and seatbelt, then transitions to just the seatbelt, and then you can remove that to make it into a simple swing for older kids. Win!
