sorry. there's not too much I can say without completely giving it away. as I said before it's not an easy solve, but the answer itself is extremely simple. it's something everyone knows and has used countless times

Spoiler for ehhh..

Ice mammoth...

I don't know why, but I want to say

I don't have a logical reason, just a gut feeling.

it's certainly a good answer and it follows the clues I've left well, but it doesn't fit all the lines. the answer is something completely different than anything guessed so far.

I think this one has gone on long enough so here are 2 big hints. I have 1 more hint to reveal if needed, but it will surely end things.

Spoiler for 2 big hints

start solving by thinking about lucky things. and perhaps not universally lucky, but lucky to only particular cultures that may not be yours. the cultures that do find it lucky are very large.

it's round

Spoiler for A leap of faith...

Water would push over infant...
Found deep within ice.. duh
Not sure about last part hint seems to say saltshaker which makes me think about the machines they use to melt ice on roads....

Probably trying to catch a fish in air...

Spoiler for is it

coal ? doesn't fit being round (altho it can be)

[Potok]

Spoiler for this one has been here for a while now let's do this

Rainbow ?

[TheChad08]

Put me in front of an infant
Who's just learned how to walk
And they may have trouble getting by

You can find me deep within ice
But you've surely seen me recently
Despite my noticeable lack the past few years

I'm considered lucky
But if I tip over
You may never hear the end of it


What am I?

Hmmm... I want to say

Spoiler for

Horseshoe. Mostly because it fits the third one so well (since a horseshoe is only lucky when pointing up).
Either that or a wishing well, but that doesn't fit the third stanza very well.

Spoiler for Round lucky things

The only round lucky things I can think of are dreamcatchers and coins and wells, and none are found deep in ice.

It could be a witch bottle or charm flask - you wouldn't want to tip that over, some are round... I'm not sure.

Finally, a globe is a possibility! Though I don't see where the ice comes in, again.
