Which swing? Or not a swing?

I have a 6 year old boy and a 3 year old girl. A second 6 year old boy often plays here too.
We currently have the big Little Tikes Tropical Playground. The 6 year olds looks massive on it and though it is really safe for little kids I am worried they'll start climbing over the tall plastic sides this year.

I am going to leave off buying the trampoline until the little one is about 5/6, but I am wondering about getting a swing, or maybe a swing slide combo. There are so many types!

What seat combinations would you recommend? 2 normal ones? Are the gliders any good? Or the monkey swings? Or a trapeze seat (a long way to fall?) Is it worth getting one with a rope ladder? A review on Amazon said that kids can't actually climb them?
Are cheap metal ones a false economy?

Or should I get a TP explorer climbing frame with slide and jungle run instead?
