ABSTRACT:
A toy walking rocking horse. The toy horse includes a main body having a seat and a front leg member rigidly attached thereto. A head member shaped to simulate a head of a horse is mounted upon a front portion of the main body, with a pair of elongate handles extending laterally outward from the head in opposing directions. A rear leg member is pivotally attached to the main body at a pivot point such that the front leg member and the rear leg member are rotatable toward and away from each other about the pivot point. A rider may actuate the toy horse into a step-by-step forward progression by sitting upon the seat and alternately (i) rocking backward against the seat to rotate the main body and front leg member in the forward direction to a first forward-advanced position, and (ii) rocking forward against the handles and main body to shift weight of the rider off of the rear leg member to cause it to fall forward to a second forward-advanced position.
