We want to get DD (12 months) some kind of small climber with slide that she can play on while DS is on the big boy swingset. I can't decide between these two. Any opinions?

We have the 2nd one with the periscope and DD loves it. She got it for her second bday. I think she'll outgrow it soon, but #2 will be able to use it. For a 1 yo, I think it would be great.
ETA: One thing I do like about this one (especially for the younger kid) is that it has more legitimate steps vs. a ladder. The ladder would make it a little tougher for little guys to get up safely.

I've been looking into getting my daughter something similar for her first birthday. One thing I saw in reviews on the second one is that the roof isn't high enough for taller kids. @futuremama: Have you had that experience?

I nanny for a 5 year old and an almost 2 year old. They have one similar to the first picture, and the 5 year old still uses it, despite having a full sized play structure.

@krispi: you're right. the roof isn't very high. My daughter is pretty tall for her age, but she usually kneels or squats to look into the periscope. I think the kid in the pic is kneeling too. It hasn't been an issue. they won't be able to stand and play in there though.
