There are hobby horses, and then there is this one. The Bigjigs Cord Hobby Horse is made from soft ridged corduroy in warm oat beige — beautifully tactile, beautifully made — with a proper brown grosgrain bridle, silver stud detailing at the cheek and nose, a large warm amber glassy eye, white fluffy mane between the ears, and a soft padded muzzle. It is a toy that children fall completely in love with. The lifestyle photography says it all: a small girl beaming in a golden meadow; a toddler laughing in her nursery; pure, unbridled joy.
The practical design is excellent too. Two small natural wooden wheels at the base glide smoothly over flat surfaces so little riders can trot freely rather than drag the stick behind them. A sturdy horizontal wooden handle sits at 68cm — the right height for confident little hands to grip and go. The whole thing stands 97cm tall; responsibly sourced materials throughout; conforms to current European safety standards.
Hobby horse play builds gross motor skills, balance, coordination and the kind of open-ended imaginative play that electronic toys simply cannot replicate. A wonderful birthday or Christmas gift for any child who has ever wanted a pony of their own.
