Stumbled across another unique carousel right here in the states. What happens if you let the kids design the animals on the carousel? It's the Totally Kid Carousel in NYC. The web page includes a section on the making of the carousel including the initial call for pictures from kids in area schools, translating kids drawings into a rideable element, making the music, and unfortunately a debugging section when they had to close the carousel for two years while trying to fix some kind of bug and get it certified.
