  • Patent number: 6475051
    Abstract: Described is a child's toy that is useful for assisting a child in imaginative play. The toy of the present invention has two primary embodiments: a sock mounted embodiment and a shoe mounted embodiment. The sock-mounted embodiment comprises a sock and a sock-attachable foot. The shoe-mounted embodiment comprises a shoe harness and a shoe attachable foot. The sock (or shoe) attachable foot is preferably an animal foot (most preferably a pair of feet). Preferably, the sock attachable foot is a replication of a complete foot, but may only be a replication of a top portion of a foot section. The bottom of each sock-attachable foot is designed to attach to a topside of a sock or shoe-attachment harness to be worn, or is simultaneously worn, by a child. There are several preferred sock mounted foot designs, among which are duck's feet, dinosaur feet, monkey feet, chicken feet, monster feet, and the like.
