If you got a swingset from Wood Kingdom...
Did you add to it over the years?
We're having this one installed tomorrow (depending on the weather):
But it doesn't have the monkey bar extension.
I just realized I had to add a bucket seat to the swingset for Colin (umm, $100 for a stupid swing! )
Thinking of adding the monkey bar extension to it when Ryan's a few years old.
Anyway add features to their swingset? How easy was it?
Thanks!

Mine is less than a year old so I havent added anything to it yet but this is exactly why I felt a little nickle and dimed by them. Between the $100 bucket seat and extra (I want to say $40!) for enough rocks for the rockwall (mine came with like 4 "rocks" which I felt wasnt enough to climb), it got ridiculous!
After the fact, I realized you can just get a $30 Step2 baby swing instead of the bucket in case it's not too late to cancel it.

You can use that? We have a brand new Little Tikes or something like that in the garage. My mom had bought it for Ryan to hang from a tree when he was an infant but then we had pretty much all our trees removed

Sorry you're right I think it's Little Tykes I'm thinking of. My SIL didnt get one from Wood Kingdom but has something similar and that's what she did. I was kicking myself.

So Little Tykes is compatible? I think that's the one I have. Either way, I'm willing to buy something on my own if it's a 1/3rd the price!
I think this is what I have:

We got a metal swingset when DS was one. I removed the existing seat and installed the little tyke bucket seat I got at BRU. Their stuff has to be modular. I am sure you can get a seat cheaper. Just use the hooks. Or go see one in person and see if the seat you have would work on the swingset.

Re: If you gots a swingset from Wood Kingdom...
I have seen those Little Tike seats on so many swingsets, I feel like it HAS to be compatible!
BTW - I am still trying to get Dan to give in and get a swing set. He's still totally against it and says I can just go over and use yours, Allison's and Kara's.

Lowes has the green bucket swings much cheaper! I have a wood kingdom swingset and I wanted the bucket to match the other swings and I found them there last year.
