Additional Guidelines and Recommendations

  • Spring rockers are designed for toddlers and preschool age children.
  • Seat design does not allow the rocker to be used by more than the intended number of users.
  • Each seating position is equipped with handgrips and footrests.
  • The springs of rocking equipment minimize the possibility of children crushing their hands or feet between coils or between the spring and part of the rocker.
  • For toddlers, the seat is 12-16 inches high and spring rockers with opposing seats have at least 37 inches between seats.
  • For preschoolers, the seat is 14-28 inches high.
