Abstract: A kinetic activity gumball-dispensing device has a hopper containing a plurality of gumballs and has at least one alternate-material ball, where the alternate-material ball travels along a first visible route which begins and ends in an opaque enclosure and which is defined by a series of visually interesting kinetic activities. The gumballs are dispensed along a second visible route after the return of the alternate-material ball from the first route, which second route begins adjacent the opaque enclosure. The gumball-dispensing device thus gives the appearance that the gumball dispensed is the ball which traveled the first visible route. The series of kinetic activities includes an inclined, pendular staircase with a series of pivoting, pendular steps; a turntable; an elevator having a pivoting carrier; a swivelling bucket mechanism; and a trampoline means aligned to intercept the alternate-material ball falling from the bucket.
