spring horse

Playground bouncy mount

A spring horse is a children's riding toy mounted on heavy springs rather than curved rockers, allowing bouncing motion in addition to back-and-forth rocking.

The springs attach to a stationary base, making it safer and more stable than a traditional rocking horse while adding the thrill of vertical movement: The toddler bounced wildly on her spring horse.
