a teder-toder is
on the web
not the seperate words though
it is a playground "toy"
one person sits on one side
another person sits on the other
of a board
that is propped up in the middle
when one person pushes w/ their legs on the ground
the other person goes down
here is a reference (though slight)
i found on ask jeeves:
It is like the playground teder-toder, the more one
side goes down the more the other side goes up.
