Climbing Wall for the Kids
My wife and I are thinking of building a climbing wall in our house for the kiddos, ages 5, 3 & 1. I know nothing about climbing but we've taken them to an indoor gym a few times and they love it.
Thinking something permanent in our rec room, ceilings are vaulted to 12' so have some room but also open to ideas on an outdoor one that can be collapsed and stored in the garage.
So my question, any good websites, pics or suggestions for this type of thing. Reco's for holds, anything "must have" pieces to get it done? The Google machine basically turns up Pintrest.
Want to try and make it as cool and unique as possible but keep the spend reasonable. Search function turned up nothing...thanks in advance.

Climbing Wall for the Kids
Thanks all, definitely considering as a Christmas present this year to the kids. My only concern as of now is resale of the house but I guess I can just figure that out when the time comes.
Thinking a vertical wall w/ plywood and 2x4's...pretty straight forward for now and hoping to have something for the kids by the time Santa comes
