Rocking horses

Where: The Heart Painter Inc., Royal Palm Place, 310 Esplanade, Suite 50A, Boca Raton. Phone: 544-8158

Here is a keepsake that will gallop into a child’s memory in decades to come.

We were partial to the tropically themed pink and aqua horses, replete with beading, but Evelyn Ballin, the Heart Painter herself, will customize these horses to match any decor.

Pink Electra Townie bike

How much: $450

Where: Richwagen’s Delray Bike and Sport, 298 NE Sixth Ave., Delray Beach. Phone: 276-4234.

Remember that flush of excitement at the sight of a shiny new Schwinn or Western Flyer under the tree on Christmas morning? Who says that feeling is just for kids? This pink Townie, complete with chartreuse wheels, hits a perfect tropical note for comfortable cruising along the coast. There are optional fancy fenders with matching grips for those who want to personalize a bike.

Want to go more tropical? Check out the fancy pineapple motif Electra bikes ($620) also built for cruising in style.
