A soft, plush rocking horse that sings, talks to you, and neighs. The mouth even moves. It has two modes: it can rock gently back and forth for younger children or it can spring up and down as if galloping through the forest. It even has a safety harness for younger children who may not yet know how to sit upright on it. It is amazing! At least that's what I thought when I purchased it for my daughter's first birthday present. The entire time I was trying to determine an appropriate gift, I knew I wanted it to be spectacular. After all, how many first birthdays does a person have? Infants and toddlers are imaginative creatures. They build stories and worlds inside their tiny heads. They look at the world around them and see nothing but possibilities where we might see something boring, bland, or meek. They see a toy and don't understand price tags. No, they understand possibilities...just not the same way as us parents....
