Swingy – the revolutionary link between screens and movement
Tired of watching your kids sit in front of a screen for hours while their posture and health suffer? Few things feel worse than giving in and allowing “just five more minutes” on the phone or tablet for a moment of peace—only for five minutes to become an hour. Meanwhile, little backs round, heads droop, and cores weaken. The statistics are alarming—only 20% of preschoolers meet the minimum daily activity recommendations. Balance—the foundation of all motor skills—develops up to around age 15. With numbers like these, it’s clear that children need more than just another digital gadget.
Introducing Swingy: the toy that gets kids on their feet
Swingy is the world’s first wireless balance trainer that turns digital games into beneficial physical activity. Two elegant wooden foot-rockers connect via Bluetooth to your smartphone or tablet and let your child control games with leg movement. Instead of sitting on the couch, your child stands on two balance boards, practices stability, strengthens the core—and has fun with engaging mobile games. With Swingy, guilt turns into pride: you can finally say, “Yes, screen time can benefit my child’s health.”
Why balance matters
Balance is the base of every movement. Without a well-developed vestibular system, children struggle to jump, run, or climb stairs efficiently. This system matures until about age 15; the critical window for healthy posture lies between ages 3 and 7. Sadly, many kids don’t use these years to build stability—there’s too much sitting and not enough outdoor play. A balance board creates the ideal environment for learning to use the body. With each forward-back rock, core muscles strengthen, coordination improves, and reflexes sharpen. Children learn to control movement—a skill that later supports every sport, from skating and cycling to climbing and skiing.
How Swingy works
Swingy consists of two boards made from premium beech wood. Each contains a wireless sensor that pairs with a mobile device. As the child moves, the sensors send data to the app, which turns movement into gameplay. Kids play with their feet—not their fingers. The first game the team developed is Swing Pong, a digital ping-pong. Two paddles appear on screen and the child moves them by tilting the boards. The goal is to keep the ball in play as long as possible while obstacles and rewards increase the challenge. It’s intuitive for kids yet suitably demanding to keep them motivated. Another title is Swingy Runner, where the squirrel mascot Swingy must be guided safely through the forest while avoiding obstacles. The third is Brick Breaker. The Swingy team is constantly releasing new games, so play never feels repetitive.
Because the boards connect wirelessly to both iOS and Android, you’re not locked into a platform. Install the app on a phone or tablet—or even play on a TV. Use the boards in the living room, in the yard, or at the grandparents’. Swingy is designed to move with you: no cables, no fixed base. That means kids can turn, hop, and build reactive balance while playing.
From fun to fitness: benefits for children
Swingy offers much more than entertainment. Here are key expert-backed benefits:
-
Core strengthening – rocking forward and back engages back and abdominal muscles essential for good posture, reducing the risk of back pain and poor alignment.
-
Improved coordination and reflexes – kids learn to synchronize leg movement with on-screen action, strengthening motor pathways.
-
Better focus – maintaining balance while tracking the game trains attention. Some studies suggest balance work can support cognitive development.
-
Built-in motivation – because games are fun, kids want to practice. No more pleading for walks—Swingy motivates movement on its own.
-
Long-term sports support – solid balance underpins running, dance, skiing, and more. Early balance training makes complex skills easier to learn later.
Who says play is just for kids? Swingy is for parents, too
While designed with children aged four and up in mind, Swingy benefits the whole family. The boards are extremely robust and support up to 136 kg (300 lb), so parents can safely step on. If you use a standing desk, stand on Swingy while you work to activate your core, boost circulation, and reduce spinal load. Many adults are surprised how quickly they feel the effects—better posture and more energy.
Parents often report feeling more focused and less fatigued when using Swingy at work. Because the boards operate independently, they’re great for a variety of exercises that strengthen legs, glutes, and core. Swingy isn’t just a toy—it’s a versatile fitness tool that brings the family together.
Designed with love and expertise
Swingy didn’t appear out of thin air. From day one, it’s been developed by a team led by a physician and including teachers, pharmacists, PE professors, and trainers. Safety was paramount: each surface is carefully finished and treated with an anti-slip coating. The specially shaped, wider underside helps prevent tipping, giving kids confidence to move freely.
Sustainability was also key. No one wants toys that burden the planet. That’s why Swingy is made from quality beech wood—natural, warm to the touch, and eco-friendly. The wooden construction is sturdy and durable, yet beautifully designed to fit any home. Clean lines and natural wood tones make Swingy a warm, eye-catching addition to your living room.
Smart, safe, and eco-friendly: the perfect combo
When a toy affects your child’s health, three (actually six) traits matter:
-
Fun: Swingy gets kids moving in a playful, compelling way. Because the action is on screen, they hardly notice they’re exercising.
-
Healthy: The unique forward-back motion strengthens the core and improves balance, coordination, and reflexes.
-
Smart: The wooden rockers connect wirelessly to your smart device, so games are controlled with the legs.
-
Safe: Every piece is finished to reduce slipping, helping kids feel secure.
-
Elegant: Natural beech wood brings warmth and style to any space.
-
Eco-friendly: The wooden build is natural, robust, and gentle on the environment.
Together, these make a toy you’ll be proud to keep in the living room. No plastic clutter or cable mess—Swingy becomes a natural part of family life.

Our story – the heart of Swingy
Swingy began with two young parents who, in 2015, grew concerned about technology’s impact on their children. They watched their toddlers navigate smart devices with ease while their young spines suffered and movement decreased. Over dinner they shared their worries. A mother who is a physician and her husband, an orthopedic surgeon, were developing a tool to help patients with back pain. The idea—a curved walking aid that improves balance and strengthens the core—sparked Swingy. They combined love for children with medical know-how and, after many prototypes, Swingy was born.
The first time they saw their kids on the boards—eyes bright, a healthy sweat—they knew they had created something special. Their mission is clear: turn screen time into active play that strengthens the body and develops the brain. That story is woven into every Swingy we send out into the world.
