First post so apologies if it's in the wrong forum. And I'm sure to use the wrong terminology in this post, so sorry for any cringes caused.
I have a middling sized tree in my back garden, I'd like to set up a rope and maybe some holds on the tree so my 10 year old daughter can climb up it. And the two six year olds as they get older.f
However I don't know much about equipment so I'm not sure what to buy. I normally turn up at climbing walls and it's all set up, I haven't bought things other than a harness.
I'm picturing a sling near the top of the tree, holding a carabiner, with a pulley, then a rope going up and down that I can use to belay. On top of that some strapped on holds so they don't damage the tree.
I've scouted round for what I imagine would be a good set of kit for that, but I may be totally off base, so I was hoping I could get some advice:
I'm thinking I'd need a sling (2 slings, in case 1 fails) a carabiner, a pulley and a length of rope.
So something like this:
Pulley: https://www.climbers-shop.com/2818651/products/petzl-fixed-cheek-pulley.asp...
Carabiner: https://www.decathlon.co.uk/3000-carabiner-screwgate-id_8177504.html
Sling (x2 - just to be super safe): https://www.climbers-shop.com/9966874/products/dmm-11mm-x-120cm-dynatec-sli...
Rope: https://www.climbers-shop.com/10941488/products/edelweiss-10mm-x-60m-flashl...
Then once that's all in place I'll speak to these folks about tree holds - unless there's better suggestions of how to put holds on trees?

The whole thing could end up being very expensive, but my other two 6 year olds could also use it as they grow up. And the thought of being able to climb a big tree in my back garden with a rope just would've been unbelievable to me as a kid.
I'll get a professional tree climber to nip up and install the sling/rope etc in the first place, but I can't get them in until I've got the right kit. Is any of the above correct, or am I way off the mark?
(p.s. I did search the forums, and saw this: https://www.ukhillwalking.com/forums/gear/climbing_holds_on_garden_tree-718978. But it's not quite the same issue. Plus I don't have the space to create a climbing wall instead. It's the tree or nothing)
