Claims
- 1. A toy for use with a wand, said toy comprising a hollow, generally dome-shaped shell having a wall with an inner and an outer surface; said wall defining an apex and said inner surface having a first lip defining a first opening; said wall extending from said first lip to a second lip defining a second opening; a first rim means extending from said inner surface at said first lip for engaging an end of said wand and for enabling rotating movement of said wand to cause said toy to spin about said wand; and a second rim means extending from said inner surface at said second lip for engaging an end of said wand and for enabling rotating movement of said wand to cause said toy to spin about said wand.
- 2. A toy as in claim 1 wherein said outer surface defines a depression adjacent to said first lip.
- 3. A toy as in claim 2 wherein said outer surface of a first portion of said wall between said apex and said depression is substantially convex and wherein said outer surface of a second portion of said wall between said depression and said second lip is also substantially convex.
- 4. A toy as in claim 3 wherein said depression, said first opening and said second opening are substantially circular about a common imaginary axis.
- 5. A toy as in claim 4 wherein said first and second rim means extend inwardly toward said axis.
- 6. A toy as in claim 5 wherein said wall is aperture-free.
- 7. A toy as in claim 1 wherein said first and second rim means are each of sufficient dimensions to readily enable said wand to remain engaged therewith while said wand is being rotated to cause said toy to spin about said wand.
- 8. A toy as in claim 1 in combination with a wand having a first rounded end, said wand adapted to be hand held adjacent to a second end thereof, to engage said rounded end with the interior of said apex whereby rotating movement of said wand causes said toy to rotate and to engage said rounded end with said first rim means and with said second rim means as said toy is spun.
- 9. A toy comprising a hollow, generally dome-shaped shell having a wall with an inner and an outer surface; said wall defining an apex and said inner surface having a first lip defining a first opening; said wall extending from said first lip to a second lip defining a second opening; a first rim member extending from said surface at said first lip; a second rim member extending from said lip; and wherein said outer surface of a first portion of said wall between said apex and said depression is substantially convex and wherein said outer surface of a second portion of said wall between said depression and said second lip is also substantially convex.
