ABSTRACT:
A soft, lightweight disc is capable of being used as a tossing toy or twirled around a finger. The disc is circular with an inner perimeter and an outer perimeter and contains a hole centrally in its body. The disc can be constructed of soft buoyant material to enhance floating. For amusement, a doll, or a soda can, and the like could be secured in the central hole. The doll is spherical and fits securely inside the inner perimeter of the disc. An annular disc can be used to rigidify the lower surface of the tossing toy and enhance air flotation and lift. A pair of like annular discs can be used to form a tossing toy.
