Healthy gaming
Encouraging children’s physical activity is becoming an increasingly important mission of responsible parents. Children today do not exercise enough as only 20 % of preschool children achieve the minimum daily physical activity, which has a bad effect on their motor development. Our team decided to change that. We have combined a balance board, which strengthens the muscles of the trunk important for correct posture, with fun games for mobile devices, which motivate children to use the balance board on a daily basis.
Balance. It matters
Playing is an important source of physical activity and motor development for children, especially in the first years of life. Balance is the basis of all our motor skills. Children develop their balance system up to the age of fifteen. The balance board is a toy with many positive effects on the child such as improving balance and coordination, greater attention and concentration, enhanced cognitive development and many others.
Swingy is…
FunSwingy encourages children to be physically active in a fun and playful way.
HealthySwingy’s unique feature is its back and forth movement, which strengthens the core muscles required for a healthy posture. It also improves balance, coordination, and reflexes.
SmartThe two wooden rockers are wirelessly connected to a smartphone or tablet. This allows kids to play digital games with their legs.
SafeEach piece is smooth-sanded and finished with a nonskid spread. Its careful design enables children to hold balance without fear of any of the balance boards slipping away.
SleekDue to its beautiful sleek design and the natural beechwood, Swingy is a warm and cheerful addition to every home.
ECO-friendlyThe balance boards are made of wood. Wood is a natural and warm material that does not cause environmental pollution. It is pleasant to the touch, but also robust and durable.
Swingy was developed in cooperation with doctors, teachers, and exercise physiologists
With its curved form and back and forth movement, Swingy strengthens the core muscles required for a healthy posture and improves balance and coordination. Improving balance helps children in everyday life as well as at sports such as rollerblading, biking, skating, climbing, and skiing. Swingy was developed in cooperation with professional experts including doctors, pharmacists, physical education professors, and exercise trainers.
Play Ping-Pong with your feet
The first game we developed is called Swing Pong. Each sensor controls one slider on the screen. The aim of the game is to bounce the ball left/right between the two sliders as far as possible, while various obstacles appear on the screen during the game, as well as rewards that make the difficulty harder or easier. Swing Pong is just the first of the games, as we are constantly developing new ones and you can expect the first 3D game soon. Swingy works with all iOS and Android devices.
Swingy is HANDMADE of wood and was developed for children aged 4 and up
Made in Slovenia (EU)Swingy comes from the hands of a Slovenian master woodworker.
Premium beech woodIt ensures a long service life and a maximum load capacity of up to 136 kg.
Children’s physical activity is important
Child’s play is an important source of physical activity and motor development, especially in the first years of life. And balance is the pillar beneath every motor skill we have. Children develop their vestibular system, also known as the balance system, up to the age of 15. Experts say that the critical period for developing a healthy posture is between the ages of three and seven.
Swingy is also for adults
Swingy is not just a toy for children. It is also very useful for parents, especially those who spend a lot of time in front of the computer. If you have a standing desk, you can use the Swingy while working to strengthen your muscles, activate your brain, and improve blood circulation! Since Swingy consists of two separate balance boards, it can be used for countless different muscle-strengthening exercises making it the perfect toy for the whole family.
A team of expertsThe Swingy team is made up of a team of passionate people, led by a doctor of medicine, joined by exercise experts, woodworkers, programmers, and pharmacists.
Opinions of parents and journalists from around the worldThe reviews from satisfied parents who have enabled their children to play games in a healthy way mean a lot to us.

Swingy arrived today and my kids haven't stopped playing with it since they opened the box. They are 5 years old and I am excited to see what they all plan to use it for!!!! The two children have already told me that we need another one so that they can play together. So we may be buying another one in the very near future. This product is so well made and I can see it lasting a very long time.
