A rocking horse is a child's toy, usually shaped like a horse and mounted on rockers similar to a rocking chair.

There are two sorts, the one where the horse part sits rigidly attached to a par of curved rockers that are in contact with the ground, and a second sort, where the horse hangs on a rigid frame by iron straps the horse moves only relative to the frame, which does not move.
