The Jones family of Ohio is entertaining their cousin Henry, who is visiting from Belgium.

After staying for several days, Henry is getting ready to leave, when he presents the Jones with a gift.

It is a lamp that Henry claims is a very valuable antique that has been in his family for 70 years. It has small Bohemian figures that dance around the base when the lamp is turned on. Henry plugs it in to show the family how it works.

After Henry leaves, the father looks at his family, and says, “While it may be a pretty lamp, and it was nice of Henry to give it to us, it is not a Belgian antique.”

Why is the father so sure?

I’m a pendulum that many children will see,
I become so when someone sits on me.
I rock back and forth with a gentle glide,
But I’m so thin you couldn’t use me to hide.

What am I?

I have many numbers, usually 50. But, of those numbers, showing are only 13 minus 3.
I am typically heavy, though I am small in size. I can be used for storing a prize!
I come with a special code of sorts, usually numbers 3. Sometimes memorization can be hard, or easy!
