I love anything to do with horses, they're my sanctuary away from everything that's not nice.  When I was little I went to a little nursery school and they had two rocking horses, a brown rocking horse and a much larger white one (at least he was in my memory, if he was still there today I'd probably be shocked to discover that he wasn't 16hh).

The thing that amazes me, as a grown up, is just how expensive rocking horses are!  You can spend thousands and thousands on a beautiful rocking horse - I'd be rather reluctant to let the kids play on it for that sort of money though.

Rejoice, then, that this brown rocking horse is only thousands of pence rather than pounds - he's rather cute looking too and suitable for little pony fans aged three years and over.

He makes realistic (allegedly) pony sounds and moves his mouth when you press his ears and has a soft padded saddle for riding comfort too. Personally, I wish he didn't have silly sound effects, but then I'm a bit of a purest and prefer to listen to the real thing.

Shipping is free, so £38.99 is all you're going to pay for your little brown rocking horse.

The Pink Rocking Horse comes with wheels too, for extra stability, although I can’t see how that wouldn’t interfere with the actual rocking, but reviewers around the web seem to love it. Annoyingly I can’t seem to find an age range on it anywhere, but those same reviewers bought it for babies from 12 – 18 months.

Complaints were that it was tough to put together and that the sound effects weren’t great. (When you press the ears it neighs and so on.) The nose also moves to breathe while it is singing.

Delivery is free and the Kiddieland Pink Rocking Horse is usually dispatched within 24 hours.

• Horse about with the Topaz or  Pollyanna Ponies from Mamas and Papas

My daughter had a rocking horse given to her when we went to South Africa last year, and she adored it. She literally rocked it around the tiled floors of the open plan kitchen/living room/dining room. Unfortunately when we left it was just too big to bring back with us, even though we tried disassembling it and getting it its own suitcase.

These are a little smaller, but just as lovely.

There’s Topaz, suitable from around 12 months, a soft velour horse with a stylish sheepskin effect saddle. He has a solid wood frame and handgrips for added support, and if you press his ear, he makes horse sounds – neighing and galloping, I guess.

Topaz comes with an easy to pack away reusable bag, and requires 2xAA batteries (for the horsey sounds – but from experience I can tell you that he’s as much fun without the sounds.)

There’s also Pollyanna, who is a little smaller, making her suitable from 9 months old. Pollyanna comes with crinkle fabric, rattles and squeakers in her ears. The reviewers love Pollyanna and give her five stars (out of five!)
