Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Simbas2615. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about garden arbours.

For your intended use, I’d recommend using 90 x 90mm H3-treated posts concreted at least 800mm into the ground to provide the necessary strength and stability. Given that the structure will need to support the weight of a moving toddler swing, it would be best to have a carpenter construct the arbour to ensure it is safe and secure for this purpose.

Once built, you could use heavy-duty swing hooks such as Zenith 12.7 x 140 x 10mm Zinc Plated Eye Screws, ensuring they are fixed into the strongest part of the overhead beam.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
