  • Patent number: 4594072
    Abstract: An infant's toy (20) is disclosed as being made from soft, spongy members fixed together so as to form a simulated dashboard, or the like, of an automobile. The toy includes a soft steering wheel (26), an opening and closing simulated glove compartment (48) with its own toy (58) contained therein, and held by a cord (62) to prevent loss. A pocket (38) containing keys (40) or the like is also fixed to the toy. A further cord (41) prevents loss of the keys. A soft moveable gear shift lever (30) and soft operable radio (42) are also fixed to the simulated dashboard. Soft washable fabric (24) covers the elements of the toy, and the overall configuration and make up prevents harm or damage if a child strikes the toy, or is struck by the toy.
