An amusement apparatus includes an elongate member having an upper extremity formed with a leveraging arm and an opposed lower extremity formed with a pivot point. A seat to receive a child in a sitting position is mounted to the elongate member for rotation thereabout between the opposed upper and lower extremities, and a handlebar available to be taken up by hand by a child seated on the seat is mounted to the elongate member for rotation thereabout between the seat and the upper extremity. The leveraging arm extends outwardly from the upper extremity to a handled end positioned above the seat. The elongate leveraging arm is available to be taken up at the handled end to reciprocally pivot the elongate member at the pivot point of the lower extremity of the elongate member to impart rotation to the seat about the elongate member.
