As a kid, one of the most beloved games was “swings.” And jumping off swings was one of the best parts. Sometimes we played for height, but most often we played for distance, probably because it was more easy to measure. Amazing that i have no recollection of anyone breaking bones.
As far as instructions from Vachel, I highly recommend getting the full set BEFOREhand.
There is no doubt in my mind that Vachal honestly forgot that Dee couldn’t fly.
We couldn’t play for distance on the swings at my school or we would have landed on a log or the parellel bars. Or into the side of a building. Really poor placement, unless they were trying to discourage jumping… :)
Yeah, safety nazis. Most schools have removes merry-go-rounds and jungle gyms. Except for a few bumps and scrapes, no kid ever got hurt on playground equipment. And they wonder why kids are fat these days. Give them something to work off the calories. We ate like horses, especially sweets, and we were all skinny as rails.

Really nice classical style.
