    Great lens, the family has had quite a few rockers shared amongst us for each new generation to enjoy.

    Not a horse. But I did have something very similar to the latest design. Dad made it for my older brothers and I inherited it .. a bit of wear and tear on it but I did love it.

    Love that beautiful rocking horse design!

    No I didn't but I still can comment on the lens! I have always wanted to- just there were not lots of toys in stores to buy in a socialist country 30 years ago. I love the new design, while I also think that kids would love it more in the old fashioned horse style and appearance.

    No I don't. That's why I don't think I can comment on this lens.

    I think there's room for both styles. Some kids will love the wooden rocking horse style and others will like the more modern rocking horse. Neat design!

    I did have a rocking horse as a child. Just like the one in your picture from the past. I guess that makes me really old. =)

    And, although I like the design of the modern one, if it doesn't look like a horse at all, can it really be called a rocking horse?

    Cheers!

    The rocking horse looks so furturistic. I like it.

    yes, we had one that survived 5 children and got passed down to baby sister and her four.

    Yes, I did.

    Yep and now I have moved on to real horses. I just never could get enough. Great lens and debate.

    I like the new rocking horse but, I still love the old one as well. I firmly believe that there is space in the baby's room for both...

    I loved my rocking horse as a kid. Had the traditional one with the springs. You have me thinking now, I wonder if my sister still has it.

    that is quite a good looking rocking horse.
  • kab Aug 15, 2009 @ 3:16 pm | delete
    I love it! It looks like a "computer chair" i hat in the 80s.

    The new one is a cool design for a rocking horse. It looks like it'd be easier to get on.

    I had one, but it was the classic rocking horse. I think this is is pretty cool, and a very modern design.

    Yep, made Giant on 07/07/2009! Thanks![in reply to OhMe]

    I love Rocking Horses and love this lens. The divider is so unique and attractive. Great work. Hey, is that a new badge I see you wearing. It sure looks great on you. Congratulations.

    I had a rocking horse, as did my children and my grandchildren. This one's very nice. Please visit my Squidoo lenses if you get a chance!
