Abstract: A module structured for use with a toy is provided. The module includes a light emitting assembly. The light emitting assembly has a circuit board and a battery assembly. The battery assembly includes an attachment portion coupled to the circuit board and an end portion opposite the attachment portion. The module further includes a housing, the housing having a containing portion and a stabilizing portion extending from the containing portion at a junction. The stabilizing portion is structured to engage the toy and the containing portion is located on the light emitting assembly. The end portion is located between the junction and the circuit board.

Abstract: A pet toy particularly designed for a pet for playing fetch and pulling. The pull toy includes a plurality of woven strands securing attached to a head. The head includes an opening through a portion of the strands remains secured to the head, the remaining portion of the strands extend out the opening and are of sufficient length to be grabable by a person or pet. The woven strands may be a rope body having a torso having arms and legs with an optional knot at the distal ends of the arms and legs. In other embodiments the woven strands may form an elongated strap with or without an handle, or a head having individual strands extending from the head. In the preferred attachment, the opening of the head is divided by a rib to form two compartments. The woven strands can be positioned about the rib with apex of the strands abutting one end of the rib and remaining portions positioned on either side of the rib through the two compartments and out through the opening to extend past the head.

Abstract: A flying toy having a resilient, non-circular frame substantially radiated about an imaginary center axis. The fame includes a plurality of elongated side members substantially interconnected by a plurality of radially-extending feet members, where a higher concentration of the weight of the frame resides at its periphery. Each side member is arced inward toward the imaginary center axis. The frame defines a central opening of which the imaginary axis is axially aligned. A flexible membrane is attached to least a portion of the side members and substantially covers the central opening. In one embodiment, a center portion of each side member is positioned above its adjacent feet members when the toy is in an at rest position to form a structure that is substantially concave in shape in the at rest state. During spinning flight, the higher concentration of weight at the periphery induces centrifugal force upon the toy causing the side members to partially flatten out.

Abstract: These and other objects are met by a ball throwing apparatus including an elongated shaft with a half-spherical structure attached to or formed at its distal end designed to easily engage and pick up a ball for throwing without having to touch the ball with your hand or fingers. Also disclosed herein is a method of playing the game of fetch with an animal using the apparatus.
