Rocking horses are usually made in the shape of actual horses – they have heads, manes, backs, legs, and tails. Curved bow rockers are attached to the hooves to make them rock. Some rocking horses have foot rests, foot straps, or stirrups where children can rest their feet. They also have handles protruding from the sides of the horse’s head.
Wooden rocking horses are the classic rocking horses often considered to have heirloom quality. They are usually handed down from parents to children and kept as decorative pieces.
Plastic rocking horses
Plastic rocking horses are more affordable than their wooden counterparts. They are lighter and easier for smaller children (one to four years) to use.
Storage: If space is a problem, look for a rocking horse that can be folded when not in use. If you want wood: Choose a wooden rocking horse made of cedar wood to get a long-lasting quality that can last for generations.
