What is a "roly-poly toy"?

A roly-poly toy is a type of toy that has a rounded bottom, allowing it to wobble or roll back and forth when pushed, but always return to an upright position. These toys are typically made from plastic, wood, or other durable materials and are often designed in the shape of animals, people, or objects. The main feature of a roly-poly toy is its ability to self-correct and stand up after being tilted or knocked over. They are popular among young children due to their simple, engaging movement and are often used as a playful tool for developing motor skills.
