Age range for rocking toys?

missfire

I think DS would have fun with a rocking horse/toy, since he's started to try to make his little chair rock. But I'm wondering what age range these things are for? WIll he grow out of it too fast?

I'm looking at this one specifically on Amazon, but it doesn't show an age or weight range. https://www.amazon.com/International-Playthings-My-Taggies-Rocker/dp/B001R63T36/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&s=toys-and-games&qid=1251304566&sr=1-15

Thoughts?

Oops, that was dumb, I just saw where the age range is shown on Amazon. They recommend 12-36 months.

Still curious if your kids like their rocking toys?

DS has this rocking horse:

and absolutely adores it!  He drags it around the house, tries to do stunts with it (I say "sit down please," and "no riding it down the stairs" hundreds of times a day) and rocks so fast on it that it slowly starts sliding across the room. 

A neighbor gave it to us when he was 11 months old, and he has loved it ever since.  I think we've got a long time before he tires of it!

Nice! That's much cheaper and looks way more sturdy.

My parent gave DD a rocking horse for her 1st birthday.  About 14 months she started getting really into it.  She "ask" me to put her on it and she rocks herself on it.  It was a mane and tail made of yarn  that she likese to pet.  She really loves it.
