ABSTRACT:
A toy spinner in the shape of a birthday cake which uses sequentially flashing lights to duplicate the rotational movement of a pointer and also provides a clicking sound characteristic of a carnival-type fortune wheel. The spinner has a turntable which carries a single light bulb which sequentially illuminates a series of lamps arranged in a circle to mimic the action of a rotating pointer. Rotation of the turntable activates an electrical circuit which remains activated after the turntable stops for a dwell period to indicate by a lighted bulb the segment at which the pointer has stopped. The spinner may be used with a game board and markers. Indicia on the segments are tied into the markers and indicia on the markers are related to elements on the game board.
