Today when you spend money you expect value. When you purchase something for a new baby’s room or for a young child’s room you want to receive several years use from the purchase.
A toy rocking horse’s life cycle fits into this expectation.
You can use the toy rocking horse as unique decoration in the baby’s room.
Then when the baby becomes a young child the rocking horse becomes a low impact exercise machine that helps to develop muscle strength in arms and legs and maintain correct body weight.
When the young child becomes a teen ager the wooden rocking horse becomes an unique “clothes horse” with various T Shirts, shorts, and pants draped over all parts of the toy rocking horse.
When your teen ager becomes an adult and brings the grand children home the cycle begins all over as the grand children ride the wooden toy rocking horse for exercise…all from a single purchase, lasting 20 plus years.
Toy rocking horses have entertained children and adults for the past 1500 years. In the Middle Ages (500AD to 1500AD) toy rocking horses were used to train future Knights, just like Prince GaMes did with his cousin Prince Othr.
When GaMes the Prince of Toys was growing up he needed something to keep himself occupied, develop body strength, and learn skills necessary to survive in the outside world.
The Prince could not ride a real horse so the Duke of Toys had the Wood Workers Guild 001 build two wooden toy horses, one for Prince GaMes and one for his cousin Prince Othr. The boys liked their wooden horses but the horses did not move.
The Wood Workers Guild put their thinking caps on and came up with the idea of putting some old wooden barrel staves on the bottom of the legs of the toy horses so the horses would move back and forth.
Whopeee the boys yelled when they rode their new unique toy wooden rocking horses. Now they could joust each other and move towards and away from the “enemy”.
That is how the wooden toy rocking horse was born in the Dukedom of Toys, hamlet of Wooden.
Based on drawings that Mufstuf found in the Dukes personal diary she is able to bring you these unique solid wooden handcrafted rocking horses made in the USA, designed with several safety features to keep your children out of harms way. Mufstuf has created handcrafted toy wooden rocking horses for girls, for the sheriff, and for the wrangler in the family. Giddy Up!
