Can We Go Outside and Play?

My three-year old daughter loves being outdoors. She frequently asks, in her most appealing voice, Can we go outside? Of all the things she loves to do out of the house, her favorite is swinging on her swing set. There is a swing set at both our house and my parent’s house. When she was smaller, we would swing her in the baby swing. This is a swing with straps on it to keep the little tyke safe and secure. This swing is now occupied by her little sister.
