ABSTRACT:
A toy mitt is provided which also may be used as a stationary target, and includes a concave plastic shell having a number of suction cups located in the front portion and including a flexible strap attached on the backside and adjustable to conform to the size of the user's hand, or for attachment to a tennis racquet or the like. The adjustable strap may be removed and suction cups may be mounted on the back of the plastic shell for the purpose of securely mounting the shell in a permanent position where it may be used as a target to receive a thrown ball. The mitt is provided in a kit form which may be assembled by the user, and then partially disassembled to convert the mitt into a target or to otherwise attach the mitt to a stick, racquet or the like to improvise games and improve various strokes in games such as tennis.
