Nice changye!  This one is jungle gym for big kids (and they get paid to play on this one).

It would be a good idea to have a lesson on recreational gear with introduction to typical vocabulary. Even in english, my knowledge of this kind of equipment is quite limited and I can't avoid the words "stuff" or "thing". ;o)

Speaking of recreational gear, I've checked the chinese for seesaw : 跷跷板

It's funny how 跷跷板 sounds like 敲敲板 which is almost the equivalent of the french name for this equipment : "tape-cul" (ass-kicker).

Here are photos of traditional Korean "Giant Swing" (秋千) and "High Jump Seesaw" (跷跷板). The national slogan of ROK, Dynamic Korea, is really 名副其实!
