A rocking chair is a type of chair with two curved bands (rockers) attached to the bottom of the legs, connecting the legs on each side to each other. This design allows the person sitting in the chair to rock back and forth by shifting their weight or pushing gently with their feet. Rocking chairs are popular for their comfort and are often used for relaxation, reading, or soothing babies. They come in various styles and materials, including wood, metal, and plastic, and can be found in both indoor and outdoor settings. Some rocking chairs are designed with added features such as cushions, ergonomic designs, or even as part of reclining mechanisms.
