Beautifully crafted horse! Perfect for an older toddler/preschooler.  My daughter is 3 years old ,at about 38 inches and I can see her using it for another 3 years. I had read in some of the other reviews that this horse made sounds when you touch a button in the ear, but ours didn't make any sound.  We were disappointed about that because there are cheaper horses that make sounds. That would've added another level of fun.
