Jumpin Frog, a Jump & Smile fairground ride
Jump & Smile car detail. A child looks round in eager anticipation of the riding starting, while a ride attendant stares into the middle distance waiting for more customers.

The Jump & Smile is a type of fairground ride in which the chair cars are arranged on a number of radial arms around a central axis. As the central axis rotates, the arms are lifted into the air at pseudo-random intervals giving an erratic jumping motion.
