Two symmetric slides were located in a different part of the playground. Two slides allowed two kids to slide down side-by-side.

A set of regular swings were located at the other end of the playground. These swings were supported by rough hewn logs bolted together. A single swing, to the right, was intended for multiple kids to swing together.
