ABSTRACT:
A child's toy which can also be used as a game wherein a simulated landscape includes a flower or mushroom mounted on a bellows thereon and a second flower mounted thereon. The landscape includes an air channel therewithin which includes an intake valve, a passage communicating with the bellows and an outlet valve communicating with the flower. The outlet valve region of the flower includes an elastomeric washer for receiving a balloon simulating a ladybug or the like, the balloon including a nozzle for substantially airtight communication with an insertion into the washer. The sides of the balloon rest on the sides of the flower interior so that, upon inflation of the balloon by reciprocation of the bellows in standard manner, air will come into the inlet valve to the bellows and air channel and, upon contraction of the bellows, pass through the air channel and through the outlet valve into the balloon. The balloon will thereby be inflated until the force of inflation causes expansion of the balloon wall and thereby exerts a sufficient outward force against the sides of the flower to pull the nozzle out of the washer. The inflated balloon will now release the air therefrom through the nozzle and the outlet air jet will cause the balloon to be ejected further from the flower and fly away in known manner.
The above described toy can be coverted into a game or utilized as a game by determining the number of depressions of the bellows required to make the balloon fly away or, alternatively by determining the distance from the toy that the balloon flies after release from the flowr.
