Abstract: A cast plastic toy having a unitary U-shaped body including the side and top walls of the sound box, a bridge, a neck, apertures in pegboard at one end of the neck, strengthening ribs, and a barrier at the juncture of the neck and sound box. A paperboard bottom wall completes the sound box, and pegs are inserted through the apertures in the pegboard. Strings extend between the pegs and the bridge, and a continuous ridge on the upper surface of the sound box receives a paperboard insert therewithin. Apertures are formed in the sound box, and simulated manual control buttons are located on the upper surface of the sound box.

Abstract: A turtle-shaped frame provided with a recess and a post located within and projecting outwardly from the recess. A plurality of balls are freely disposed within the recess. A hub is rotatably mounted on the frame post and is spaced apart from the recess perimeter to provide a channel within which the balls can be moved. The hub has a flexible projecting member for yieldingly striking at least one of the balls upon rotation of the hub with respect to the post. The hub has a hollow shaft portion to which are connected means for causing bi-directional rotation of the hub. Means are depressably mounted in the frame for producing an audible sound. Means are coupled to the frame for mounting the frame to a crib rail.
