Bell Balls
Take a look at our 13-1/2" long twisted-plastic drinking straws that hold rolling, alien eyeballs. (The 1-3/4" dia spinning eyeballs can be popped out of the sockets for extra fun, says the label!) Assorted color combinations. We'll choose (4) for you. Note: On our web site, look for these Taco Bell® surplus straws under Adult & Kid Toys/YBP. That would be Yucky Body Parts. It's only fitting.

Cinema Vérité
Hey, Coppoletta! Add realism to your home flicks with a Hollywood director's slate board. This 8" x 7" version is wood, painted black with white lettering. The traditional striped arm on top cracks down on the palimpsest where you chalk in the Production, Director, Camera, Date, Scene and Take. Very Vérité

Roving Eye
Look at the kids eyeing this bobble toy! A green claw holds an approx 2" dia eyeball too garish to be truly yucky, and they both rock on a particularly springy spring with a self-adhesive metal base. It'a a dashboard (or skateboard) toy made for the prepubescent (or permanently pubescent) driver.

Back To Basics
It could have been called an Alabama Buzzer after Alabama Vest, the man who invented it. Or a Clegghorn, after Thaddeus Von Clegg, the clock master who fabricated the first one. But the hand-crafted 4-3/4" long steel instrument was a simple amusement, and the 1840s were a simple time. So it's simply a kazoo.

Harry Potter’s Science Made Simple
Care to sneak a little scientific education in with all the Hogwart’s wizardry? For ages 8 and up, the Simple Physics kit explains some basics with a few props (balls and sticks) and a binder-ready guide to experiments that appear to be spells and magic. The Astronomy kit includes a nice guide to the basics, including a constellation map, plus instructions and real lenses for constructing a simple telescope. All with appropriate Hogwarts insignia.

Puff the Magic AirZooka
Mega-cool toy air cannon. Birthdays will never be the same! The instructions on the AirZooka" say it blasts a gust (ball?) of air up to 20 feet but we blew out a candle at 30 feet, and it only took us three tries. (And you can hear the near-misses as they blow past--which is the mega-cool part.) Plastic, 11" dia x 10 1/2" deep, like a bucket with a pistol grip and a fold-down sight. The (3) segments unscrew and collapse for storage between birthdays. We'll pick fluorescent blue, green, magenta or orange, and you'll need two if you want to have air wars.

Rattlesnake Eggs
Or singing suppositories. The pair is very magnetic, whatever they are. The 1-3/4" long oblate spheroids look like highly polished black hematites. Hold them an inch apart in your palm, toss 'em into the air and listen to them make a sound like the cyber-crickets. Or an electrocuted chicken. The manufacturer suggests keeping these mega-magnets away from computers, pacemakers, TV sets and credit cards.

Grow A New Body
One part at a time. We'll pick (2) different parts from our rubber body part assortment of little hands, feet, brains, hearts, skeletons and eyeballs. Drop them in a glass of water and watch as they grow to (6) times their original size over a few days. Dry 'em out and watch 'em (very slowly) shrink back. Repeat as necessary for your amusement.

Runs Like A Top
Actually, it runs like an electromagnetic top, which is to say for a week or so, or however long the 9V battery lasts, so the manufacturer says. As we type, the one on the desk has been spinning for a touch over (5) hours and doesn't look tired. The black-plastic base is 3-1/2" dia x 1-1/4" high, with a secret compartment for the battery - so you can lie to people about the mysterious physics of spinning tops. The 1" tall top itself is silver and oil-can shaped.

Child Silencer
Or an effective child-silencing puzzle, anyway. This clever thingy is a 10-1/4" long x 3-1/2" dia clear plastic tube full of plastic sprinkles (Jimmies, for those of you on the East Coast) with (47) slightly larger trinkets (a bell, pearl, baseball, penny, etc.) lost among them. The silent child sits in the back seat and turns the tube around and around while trying to find them and checking them off the enclosed list (you'll get a 50-sheet pad of them) and the next thing you know you're there yet. And yes, the octagonal ends are securely glued on so they can't open it and dump the sprinkles all over, the diabolical little rugrats. Also strangely compelling for fully grown adults. At least around here.

Whimsical Hip
You'll remember these wooden guys-they're from before plastic. And electricity. Push the big button on the bottom of one of these articulated figures and it flops over in a heap; let go and it stands up proud. We've got a set with a red dog, a black cat and a particularly appealing reindeer. They'd make great props for telling stories to kids, and they'd be the soul of whimsical hip lined up in a row on the mantel. All approx 4-1/2" to a bit over 5" tall. Our each is a set of (3) different.
