Now on to play structure place #2. Rainbow Play Systems had an outdoor "showroom". They had about a dozen structures set up and since the weather was nice there were a lot of people looking for a cool play structure for their children too. Mason had a blast sliding down all of the slides and climbing up the stairs to get to the clubhouses. He also enjoyed throwing rocks and playing with the recycled rubber mulch. Mommy and Momma had lots of fun too. After asking a ton of questions, we decided that we like the one below the best. Of course it came with a hefty price tag as well. This one topped the charts at $3500.
After spending several hours out and about looking for the perfect play structure for Mason, we decided it was time to head home to read about the reviews for each of the structures.
Is it crazy to spend $3000 plus on a playstructure for our child? Dawn says yes and I say no. I look at it as at least a 10 year investment which equates to only $300 - $350 a year. What do you think? What type of play structures do you have for your children?
Until next time......

When I was little, my play set was two swings, monkey bars, and slide. I didn't want anything more. Keep it simple. A child's imagination will provide endless hours of fun.
I know, I know, the more I think about it, the closer I get to buying something a bit more economical. I just want to be sure I am not a victim of you "get what you buy"! Our neighbors all have less expensive structures but they have complained so much about them and they have not lasted longer than 4 - 5 years so I also want to think along those lines too!
