    We are seriously in awe of any parents who succeed in any type of large home project while the kids are around. I mean, parenting is a full-time job on its own. But building an entire backyard playground ? That's a few weeks of intense physical labor on top of raising kids.

    It's a little crazy to see just how expensive backyard playsets are. I mean, we're talking thousands of dollars for some swings and a slide. This dad was not about to spend his hard-earned cash on something he knew he could do himself, so he wrote out an entire plan and got to work. You'll be amazed by the final result!

    Selena ( @sincerelysel on TikTok) is a Texas momma of two kids who married the ultimate handyman. She's posted a view videos of her husband's stunning projects before but this one totally blew up her page.

    Selena and her husband wanted a swing set for their kids but unfortunately the prices of the store-bought versions were not looking promising. We're talking over $2,000!

    So, given that her husband is a talented builder, they decided to just make it on their own! This required a giant shopping trip to Lowe's and a ton of manual labor, but the final product looks incredible. They were even able to customize their number and types of swings. The pros of doing it yourself!

    Since building an entire swing set by hand is not in the cards for everyone, we have a few online options that will stay within your budget and still allow your kiddos to have the best playtime this summer.
