ABSTRACT:
An amusement device for children and the like useful for spelling education includes a toy with a support structure comprising an elongated horizontal shaft extending between opposite end portions which are adapted to rest on a supporting surface and which are fashioned to resemble the head and tail portions of a "bee-like" insect. A plurality of spinner elements are mounted on the shaft between opposite end portions and are adapted for manual spinning on the shaft. Each of the spinning elements is formed with a polygonal shaped centrally disposed opening for accommodating the shaft and a corresponding generally polygonal outer surface having a plurality of outer surface segments, each of which is provided with a selected alpha-numeric character. The polygonal openings of the spinners and the outer surface segments thereof are orientated with respect to one another whereby only one of the outer surface segments will remain facing upwardly in a "spell" position after the spinner element is manually rotated and finally comes to rest on the shaft.
