I am a toy gearhead. I am a mom. Therefore, I am Gearhead Mom. I review the good, the bad and the (often) ugly in the world of baby and childhood gear.

Sy’s aunt got her this wicked fun teeter totter for her birthday. Part of their Naturally Playful® line, the little ride is made by Step2, the geniuses behind my favorite sand and water table.

It has two wide, contoured seats with easy-grip handle bars plus it can accommodate an additional rider in middle. The maximum weight 120 lbs, so (3) three year olds can easily take it on. We put it out at Sy’s birthday party and it was a huge hit. She and her pals have a three-person see saw at school, so they understand how to ride as a trio. But the great thing about this one is that it’s light enough so the kiddo can sit by themselves in the middle, and they can rock back and forth like a rocking horse.

It’s made out of molded plastic (to look like faux rocks to match your landscape, natch). But what that really means is that it’s easy to clean and move around. It also means that you can have this thing inside on a rainy day and your carpet will be no worse for the wear.

It’s a pretty simple pleasure, the teeter totter. It’s well priced and well made. I think it’s perfect for the 2-4 year old set.

Snapshot:
Made in USA.
Minimal adult assembly required (literally all you do is pop in the handles).
Coordinates with other Naturally Playful® products, because I tend to coordinate all of my child’s toys, don’t you?
It weighs 12.5 lbs, so it feels substantial enough but can still be easily moved by a very pregnant person or shoved around by your industrious wee one.

This teeter totter is good and you just said that it is lighter and that the young one can rock on and forth on their own. Tell me where I can purchase one for a friend who is blessed with a beautiful baby girl. - Jordan
