The seat supports up to 44 pounds of kiddo, and the entire sculpture -- made from aluminum tubes and teak -- weighs just a hair over five pounds. While it could present a tripping hazard to smaller children, it looks sleek enough that you generally won&#39;t need to hide it after playtime is over. </p> <p>Grab one for 395 Swiss francs, or around $387 U.S., at <a class="" href="http://www.kidsmodern.com/product/1000567/" target="_blank">Kidsmodern</a>.</p><img src="http://www.babble.com/CS/aggbug.aspx?PostID=76974" width="1" height="1">Toyskidsmodernrocking horseplayroomdutch designbobbel rocking sculpture
