You can buy a new plastic slide from a company that sells swing sets, but the slide is probably going to cost more than a whole new swing set. The slides can be pricy when purchased separately. You might want to consider upgrading and going with a new, sturdier swing set. As far as I know, there is no way to repair the cracked slide since it is molded plastic.

Makita L1011 compound sliding saw with sticky miter table

The LS1011 doesn't have a table angle release lever like the newer models so it's harder too swing the table from angle to angle, this also causes the plastic swing body to crack. Have you loosened the locking screw for the table? The table may have to be removed and the pivet shaft greased. I had this problem with an old Makita Table Saw 10" 2600.

Fisher price my little lamb baby swing will not swing

If it makes a sound but doesn't swing then the metal rod inside the motor casing was probably bent. If it makes no sound then it could be several different problems.
If it does make noise (my daughter did the same thing) then you can fix it, though it's not the easiest fix. Unplug it/remove batteries, and you'll need to remove the legs. Start removing screws to get to the motor casing, the first ones you'll need are in the battery compartment. Be careful as you're doing this, once you get the plastic casing off things can move around. Have someone as a second set of eyes if you need it.
Once you can see the guts look for a thin metal stick, no thicker than a telephone cord. Yup, that's what moves the swing. The metal is easily stressed. You can carefully power it up if you want to see how it works or make sure that little thing is moving. There's a small gear underneath all that, but you don't need to get to it.
Instead, you'll need to beef up that little stick. I used a leftover rubber gasket from a ceiling fan first, then I was so amazed it worked I took it back apart and used a longer piece of rubber tubing with a harder plastic tube over it (it's a very tight fit). It will still need to rock back and forth in it's little hole so don't go too crazy.
The one drawback is that I think it has a louder operation now, but the one thing that both my kids adored with the swing was the rhythmic tick-tock. If baby is happy, mama is happy.
Anyway, FP will sell you a whole new motor, or if you an find the exact part number you might be able to get a new pendulum. But I like fixing stuff, and I like free better, so if this is what yours needs I hope it helps. If this is but you don't follow what I've written I'm happy to try and take pictures of mine.

    My new Nikon S8100 keeps taking blurry photos. It claims to have subject tracking to help capture the perfect shot, but my shots of my daughter's laughter on her swing set are all blurry, as well are my...

    Tracking a subject is one thing but, taking an action picture is something else altogether. You will need to set the ISO to a higher number to force the shutter to set a faster speed stop the action.

    Is it possible to reverse door swing on dryer? My daughter has a new Elite front load dryer that swings from left.

    REVERSING DOOR SWING
    Your dryer is designed so the door swing may be reversed at any time without additional parts. Conversion is accomplished by transferring hinges to the opposite side of the cabinet.
    To change the direction of the door opening:
    1. Open the dryer door. Remove the four hinge hole plugs from the left side of the door opening. Place nearby for future installation. NOTE: You may need a plastic knife to help pull out the plugs. Be careful not to scratch the paint.

    2. Remove the four screws that secure the door hinges to the dryer front panel (see below). NOTE: Remove one screw from each of the two hinges first. Hold the door firmly before removing the last two screws.

    3. Rotate the door 180° and reinstall the door hinges to the dryer front panel with the four screws.

    4. Install the four hinge hole plugs in the open screw holes on the right side of the door opening.

    Hope this helped Tim

    The safey belt on my Eddie Bauer swing is broken.

    often with a trip to a hardware store you should be able to fine something you could replace it with, and probably it will be stronger than the original

    Can't slide on sliding board

    I have heard of many people that own swing sets putting wd40 or cooking oil onto a rag (very light) and rubbing it into the surface of the slide. It might fill in the scratches. There is probably a commercial product for this purpose, but I am not sure what it would be. You might have to replace the slide.

    Little Tikes Swing Along Castle

    Your 4 screws may hold the swing piece to the slide piece. You actually secure it to the slide side wall with one of the red screw caps but you can also secure it with 4 screws that screw into the plastic.  You can also find the manual and assembly instructions at littletikes.com
