Who invented teeter-totter?

Daniel Sheridan, 23, found a way to turn children's energy into electrical power with just a teeter or totter of a board. The student of Consumer Product Design at Coventry University in the UK invented a see-saw that generates electricity. The idea came to Sheridan while volunteering in Kenya at a school.

When was the first seesaw made?

Playing on levers probably predates these chants, but the name seesaw made it to the playground by 1704. Kids may have been pretending to be sawyers, chanting along as they rocked up-and-down.
