How to choose a rocking horse
When choosing the best rocking horse for children, it's important to find one made of good, durable material. The frame itself, which stands on the floor, should be made of wood, as it is very durable.
In addition, the rocking horse should have a little weight so that it has an optimal balance and does not tip over so easily.
Finally, it can be an advantage to choose a rocking horse with the CE mark. This applies to toys in general. The CE mark is your guarantee that the product meets all requirements to be sold in Europe. This means that the product has undergone a series of relevant tests to check whether the product is safe and sound.

Rocking horse - when can children play with a rocking horse?

Children will typically be around 2 years old before they are old enough to play with a rocking horse. By that age, they have a pretty good handle on walking and standing, which makes them a lot more secure on their feet. Especially when they're getting off and on the horse.
Other children will be around 3 years old before they are completely comfortable with their rocking horse. It all depends on the model and design of the rocking horse.
