The Chaxi Family Swing is a unique and engaging play structure designed to promote social interaction, sensory experiences, and motor development.

• Social Interaction:

  • Parent-Child Bonding: The design explicitly encourages shared play experiences between parents and toddlers, fostering strong bonds and promoting positive social interactions.

• Sensory Integration:

  • Vestibular Input: The swinging motion provides dynamic vestibular stimulation for both the parent and child, enhancing balance, coordination, and spatial awareness.
  • Proprioceptive Input: The sensation of shared movement and the physical contact between the parent and child provide significant proprioceptive input, enhancing body awareness and sensory regulation.

• Gross Motor Skills:

  • Strength: Swinging engages core and upper body strength for both the parent and child.
  • Coordination: Coordinating movements to swing safely and efficiently requires fine and gross motor coordination and dynamic balance.

• Design Considerations:

  • Safety and Durability: The powder-coated steel frame and durable rubber seat ensure durability and safety for long-term use.
  • Versatility: The option to replace the baby cradle with a full-bucket seat enhances the versatility and longevity of the swing, accommodating the changing needs of the child.
  • Maintenance: Regular maintenance, including inspections of all components, is crucial for ensuring ongoing safety and functionality.

This Chaxi Family Swing is a valuable tool for promoting parent-child bonding, sensory integration, gross motor development, and play engagement.

INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE

The frequency of inspection and maintenance will vary with the type of equipment or materials used or other factors (e.g. Heavy use, coastal location, air pollution, age of equipment, ...). Moving metal parts must be oiled regularly.

Routine visual inspection (weekly to monthly) - Always check that the bolts and nuts are securely fastened. Check for any missing parts.

Operational inspection (1 to 3 months) - Check the stability of the construction. - Check every part for excessive wear and replace when necessary.

Annual inspection (1 to 2 times per year) - Check for rust and corrosion. - Check every part for excessive wear and replace when necessary
