Hi Monica, Stain - many colours with preservative included, or Chalk (Opaque colours) both types from Fencing dept at DIY. Otherwise use a primer, undercoat and Gloss topcoat.
You could do them all the same colour or 2 colours or mix and match Multi colours.
You can always sand it and then spray paint it. I'm including a link that has some great outdoor furniture makeovers and you'll see how amazing these pieces look with a fresh coat of paint.

Hi Monica, you can start by sanding smooth, then decide if you want to paint it or stain it, a semi transparent stain will let the natural wood grain show through while penetrating to protect the wood from the elements. You could also paint it a solid color or several colors to make it a focal point in your yard.
Be sure to use paint, stain, sealer labeled exterior.
