Attached to the roller are a pair of sponge pads that are constructed to resemble the feet of a duck. The sponge pads are soaked with water and leave a liquid pattern when pressed into contact with a surface. The sponge pads are located on the roller, such that a duck foot shaped pattern is left on the surface each time the user moves the duck and rotates the roller.

Abstract: A game that allows one player to win by scoring goals at a faster rate than the opposing player. The game includes a vertical wall that has a first goal attached to a first side and a second goal attached to a second opposite side of the wall. The game also has a first launcher that can project a ball toward the first goal and a second launcher that can project a ball toward the second goal. The goals may be coupled to openings in the wall by chutes that guide the balls into the court of the opposing player when a player makes a basket. The game can be played by having each player project balls into their basket so that the balls roll into the court of the opposing player. The first player to run out balls wins the game.

Abstract: A ball that has a foam outer shell which surrounds a hollow inner chamber. The ball is constructed by initially forming a first section and a separate second section. The first and second foam sections are attached to create a ball with an inner chamber. The outer shell and inner chamber create a moment of inertia that is conducive to a spiral rotation when thrown by a player. Additionally, the soft foam material of the outer shell minimizes the discomfort of catching the ball.

Abstract: A toy hockey game which includes a stick and a projectile that both have hook and loop material which releasably attach the projectile to the stick, so that the participants can maintain the projectile in contact with the stick while playing a game of hockey.

Abstract: A toy assembly that has a bubble generating machine which can be coupled to a variety of existing bicycles and tricycles. The bubble machine includes a housing which contains a pair of rings that can move in and out of a reservoir filled with bubble liquid. The rings move adjacent to a fan which blows air through the rings to create a plurality of bubbles. Both the rings and the fan are coupled to an electric motor which can be energized by depressing a button The button is also connected to an electronic assembly which emits sounds when the button is depressed. The button is typically located on the bike, so that the child can generate bubbles and noises while driving the vehicle. The assembly also includes a bracket which can be attached to the frame of a vehicle with either a pair of straps, or a pair of screws. The bracket is constructed to be attached to bikes having either tubular or rectangular frames. Extending from the bracket is an adjustable wire that couples the bubble machine to the bike.

Abstract: A ground level water toy that can be connected to a garden hose and releases water when a player pushes down one preselected control member from a number of control members extending from the toy. The toy has a housing with an inlet that can be coupled to the garden hose, an outlet that can splash the players with water, and an inner fluid passage that provides fluid communication between the inlet and the outlet. The flow of water is controlled by a valve within the housing. The toy has a trigger which is coupled to the valve by a shaft assembly. The trigger normally maintains the shaft assembly in a down position, so that the valve is closed. When the trigger is activated, the shaft moves to an up position, which opens the valve and allows water to flow from the housing outlet.The toy has a plurality of control members that extend from the housing and are adapted to be moved between a first position and a second position.

Abstract: A hand held toy that releases a fluid when an external pressure is applied to a portion of the toy. The toy includes a cylinder typically shaped as a sword. The sword shaped cylinder has a handle portion that can be easily grasped by a human hand. The cylinder also has a blade portion that is covered by a soft foam material, so that the blade does not injure another participant when struck by the sword. Within the handle portion of the cylinder is a fluid reservoir filled with a pressurized fluid. The reservoir is connected to a valve and a valve piston located at the opposite end of the cylinder. The valve piston and valve are adapted to move from a closed position to an open position, when an external pressure is applied to the piston. Moving the piston and valve into the open position allows fluid to flow from the fluid reservoir, through the valve and into the ambient. The toy also includes a pump connected to the fluid reservoir, so that a user can manually pressurize the fluid.

Abstract: There is disclosed a modified throwing object, such as a modified football or frisbee, and a corresponding glove or wrist strap or finger-band worn by each player. Both the object and the gloves or wrist strap or finger-band are covered with coacting elements which are preferably a limited amount of the material comonly called velcro. This material attaches to itself by its well-known design of fabric hook pieces gripping onto fabric loop pieces. The invention is so designed that then the object is held in a typical throwing position, prior to being thrown, there is interaction between the velcro on the glove and the velcro on the object. Upon release of the object during a throw, the bond between the velcro on the object and that on the glove, wrist or finger of the thrower is separated with a slight difficulty, thereby casuing the object to spin as it leaves the thrower's hand.

Abstract: An automotive doll that is activated by light. The doll has at least two moving parts, preferably the head, arms and torso of a girl like figure. Within the torso of the doll is a motor that is connected to a plurality of gears and cams that are attached to the moving parts. The motor is preferably powered by batteries that are connected to a light sensor attached to the doll. The sensor switches on the motor when light is directed toward the sensor. When the motor is activated, the torso, arms and head all move relative to each other. The parts move through predetermined cycles, such that the head, arms and torso rotate back and forth between two positions. The drive mechanism is constructed and arranged so that each moving part rotates through a different cycle. Such an arrangement creates a doll that can move into an almost infinite variety of positions, greatly reducing the mechanical appearance of the toy.

Abstract: A toy slot car system which simulates off-track racing. The system includes a track, toy vehicles and remote, hand-held controllers to permit each player to control the performance of a preselected vehicle. The track has coextensive, deep slots which have their sidewalls lined with electrical strip conductors, and the toy vehicles have a posts that are received in the deep slots and that carry electrical wipers at their lowermost ends. The surface of the track is rough and uneven with severe undulations which simulate off road conditions and which cause the toy vehicles to be jostled and thrown upwardly, above the track surface during races. Since the slots are quite deep and the electrical strip connectors are quite wide, the cars can bounce over the track and loose all wheel contact with the surface of the track, without loosing electrical continuity with the track, thus creating a realistic simulation of off-track racing.
