ABSTRACT:
A toy includes a tiltable structure having a generally flat surface and an upstanding rim disposed about the periphery of the flat surface, an inverted cup-like member having an open bottom, and a ball disposed partially within the cup-like member and partially therebelow. The ball is configured for free rolling motion over the flat surface within the confines of the upstanding rim when the flat surface is tilted relative to the horizontal. The ball is dimensioned to continuously support at least some portion of the bottom of the cup-like member spaced above the flat surface, whereby movement of the ball over the flat surface carries with it the cup-like member which moves over the flat surface with a wobbling sliding movement.
