ABSTRACT:
A toy device which includes a tubular member or broad band ring and a rod or stick intended to be grasped at the proximal end thereof by the user while engaging and manipulating the ring therewith. The stick has a relatively small diameter in comparison to the inner diameter of the ring to facilitate inducing a twirling action of the ring as it is circumposed about the stick at various selectable locations along the length thereof. The ring, preferably having a frustoconical profile, includes an inturned rim defining the small end thereof. The stick includes a pointed distal end, preferably having a rubber tip, for selectively engaging therewith particular portions of the ring, e.g., the rim, as the ring is being manipulated. A disc is included which may be removably joined to the ring, if desired, to supplement the feats of skill that may be practiced and enjoyed by the user. The disc is provided with a concentric aperture that is slightly larger than the small end of the ring and which receives the ring in a binding or gripping fashion.
