Grandpa Repairing a Wooden Toy
A skilled grandfather kneels inside his organized home workshop to fix a large wooden rocking horse. He uses woodworking tools to restore the traditional toy so it can be enjoyed safely.
History of Wooden Rocking Horses
Rocking horses gained widespread popularity during the eighteenth century when craftsmen began mounting carved wooden horses onto bow rockers or glider bases. Traditional toy makers select sturdy hardwoods like oak, maple, or pine to ensure the structure endures years of gentle play. Restoring antique toys requires careful sanding and non-toxic finishes to preserve the natural grain of the wood.

- Rocking base runners: deep cherry wood stain or dark oak
