Swing

A swing is a playground object, available in The Sims 2, The Sims 3, The Sims 4: Seasons and The Sims 4: Island Living. Swings can be used by any Sim, child or older. When swings are available, Sims will often autonomously go to swing on them, or to push another Sim who is using them. At least in The Sims 2, this is particularly true for selectable Sims on community lots, as they tend to head for the swings whenever they have nothing else to do.

Swings can be bought in buy mode, and can be placed on residential or community lots. Several swings placed side-by-side connect to become a swing set.

Using the swings can satisfy a Sim's fun need, and social when pushed or pushing.

The Sims 2
The Swing Kidz Deluxe Swing Set was introduced in The Sims 2 and could be used by children and older. Sims will seat themselves on the swing and rock back and forth, gaining momentum to go higher and higher. Other Sims can go behind the swinging Sim and push them. Teenagers are able to "chill" on the swings, allowing them to socialize with other Sims chilling on the swings.

Swings can be built adjacent to each other. Up to three swings can be placed adjacent with each other without requiring a support column in between.

In The Sims 2: Apartment Life, the plumbob of any Sim on a swing will tilt and "swing" with the Sim.

The Sims 3
Swings in The Sims 3 have similar features compared to swings from The Sims 2. Sims aged children and older can swing alone, or with other Sims. Older Sims can push the swinging Sims. Swings that are placed adjacent to one another do not require a support column. In The Sims 3, there is no limit to how many swings you can place adjacent to each other, and different types of swings can be mixed with each other without using support columns.

The Sims 4
Swings return in The Sims 4: Seasons and The Sims 4: Island Living. They can be used by any Sims aged child to elder. Sims can swing alone, swing together, or push someone on the swing for fun. Sims may autonomously choose to sit in a swing while having a conversation, but there is no option to manually direct them to sit there.

Unlike previous games, swings only come in sets of two, and more swings can't be attached to the sides. Adding swings to a park will fulfill the "playground equipment" venue requirement.

The Island Living swings have a fun score of 10, but the Seasons swings have no listed fun score, which is likely an oversight.
