We got a swingset made for toddlers. Everything is a little smaller than normal. Don't know if that's good or not, bc we'll have to buy a new one when she gets bigger.
If he has friends over, get one with a little see-saw on the end. Mine has fun on that.

I made a set of plans for a playset that we donate every year to a charity auction and then a bunch of us guys go and build it. You can get the swingset, slide, etc parts at home depot and the lumber from somewhere else. I build them with redwood that is sanded with rounded edges. Its pretty expensive.
The total parts cost about $2k. But it would cost $4 to $5k to get a comparable set up from some pre-built set like Rainbow. I copied it for the most part from Rainbow.
I could post you a few pictures of it.

It has two swings, one trapeze thing, a rock climbing wall, slide, and an upstairs fort room. We also added monkey bars for one guy that wanted it.

The redwood is what makes it so expensive. If you wanted to do it on the cheap, you could build it with treated lumber for probably half or more in lumber cost.

playsets/swingsets are for white trash dirtbags who bring their neighborhoods down.

Well, I'm not 18 anymore, but I think you'd be impressed.
