ABSTRACT:
A toy comprising a frame formed from a continuous length of rigid elongated wire having ends. The wire between its ends is bent to form multiple curves to give the frame a three dimensional configuration with top, bottom and sides. The curves of the wire at the bottom lie in a plane to form a flat supporting surface for the frame. A plurality of beads, with a hole in each bead are movably supported on the wire, with the wire passing through each hole. The holes are sufficiently large to permit the beads to freely slide over the curves of the wire between its ends. In alternative embodiments, stop means may be provided at the ends of the wire to hold the beads on the wire or the ends of the wire may be joined by appropriate means, in each case to provide a continuous, endless run for the beads over the entire frame.
