Round-pot Rocking Doll Mechanism:
To show the continuous movement (dance-like) with slow-damping oscillations, the centre of gravity and complete weight is concentrated at its most central core at the bottom. This central core is made of mud hence the movement comes to normal seating position automatically after after being tilted or disturbed

Wobble Headed & Dancing Dolls:
A bent wire is embedded inside the head of the toy and a loop hook in the neck/torso of the toy. When the head is precariously placed exactly on the hook it is in a state of imbalance and hence it wobbles.
