The Coin Operated Rocking Horse

Horses have played an important role throughout history. They were essential in pioneering the west. In classic western movies, the cowboy hero is saddled upon his favorite (and sometimes famous) horse. His strength of character is matched by the strength of his steed. Horseback riding today is a popular sport for some and a personal hobby for others. This kinds of coin operated horse ride for sale are hot sale in the amusement park horse rides manufacturer.


As kids, my sister and I had our picture taken while sitting on a real pony, while one of our brothers stood beside the pony sporting his cowboy hat. I rode a horse as an adult, and may I say they are impressive! It's harder that it looks to mount a horse. They make it look so easy in the movies. But once up on its back, it's quite an experience to ride from such a higher position. For many, the experience of riding a horse has only been make-believe. For example, do you remember riding a carousel as a kid? Those beautifully decorated horses on the merry-go-round were mounted on poles. When the ride began, the horses went up and down giving kids a sensational riding experience. And who can forget those 5, 10 & 25 cent coin operated kids rides sale in front of the old department stores? Of all the rides, horses were the most manufactured in the 50's and 60's. The simulation of riding a horse was exciting.


Today we can bring the riding experience into our homes for kids. Even more real than the toy stick horse is the rocking horse. A typical rocking horse has a sturdy base which sits upon the two rockers. The wooden horse is mounted on the base. Handles on the sides of the head allow for the child to hold on. The rocking horse may have a "real" mane and tail, making the experience more life-like.


I remember the rocking horse my brother had when he was just a toddler. His white horse was suspended from a metal frame with springs and had a wooden seat. The seat was something like a child's swing. It allowed him to rock and bounce as he played on it. When he rode that rocking horse, he was all smiles!

Kids feel special when they have something of their own. The child's imagination will come alive when they mount their rocking horse and shout "giddy-up!" The cowboy or cowgirl will be awakened in them and the adventure will begin.
