ABSTRACT:
A toy having electronic circuitry for generating different sounds simulating sounds resulting from certain activities such as cooking or running water. The toy is in the form of a toy stove provided with a housing having a simulated water delivery tap, a sink below the tap, and a simulated burner section for supporting one or more toy utensils in locations simulating the heating of the utensils. The electronic circuit is carried by the housing beneath the burner section and includes a white noise generator, an amplifier, and a speaker for providing audible sounds corresponding to the output signals of the white noise generator. A sound effects oscillator is coupled with the white noise generator for changing the sounds produced by the white noise generator as a function of the type of utensil on the burner section. Each utensil has one or more magnets thereon for closing reed switches forming parts of the sound effects oscillator, the reed switches being mounted below the burner parts of the burner section at predetermined locations for selective actuation by the magnets when the utensils are on the burner sections. The various sounds that can be produced are sounds simulating water flowing through the tap, a tea kettle whistle, the perking of coffee in a coffee pot, and the sizzle of meat on a frying pan. Other sounds can be produced by selectively changing the output frequency of the sound effects oscillator.
