A device for manually generating bubbles. A main body has securements each adapted to receive at least one finger of a user. A ribbon or similar structure is attached to the finger grip main body and is configurable between a smaller first configuration insertable into a bubble solution container and a larger second configuration defining a bubble-generating space waveable by the user to generate bubbles. The securements may include at least one receptacle formed from two layers of material sealed on at least one common edge, thereby forming a pocket therebetween. The at least one receptacle preferably at least partially shields the user from the bubble solution when the device is dipped in the bubble solution and allows the user to hold and control the device. The securements may include at least one aperture formed in the finger grip main body adapted to receive at least one finger therethrough.
An article for soap bubble generation is provided as a liquid-resistant wearable article. A web is provided integrally with the article having at least one hole adapted to form soap bubbles when the web is dipped in bubble solution and air is moved through the at least one hole. Preferably, the article has films of liquid-resistant material sealed at a common edge and a pocket therebetween. The pocket may be shaped to receive a body part such as a hand (e.g., the article is glove/mitten-shaped). The article substantially prevents a body part inside the pocket from touching the bubble solution when the web is dipped in the bubble solution while the article is being worn. Different sizes of holes may be provided in the web to generate different sizes of bubbles.

An active play toy shaped substantially like a baseball bat has a proximal handle section grippable by a user and a distal launching section rotatably attached to the handle section and rotatably movable with respect to the handle section from a first angled striking configuration to a second substantially straight configuration by swinging the toy. The angle between the handle section and the launching section in the striking configuration is substantially between 90° and 120° and preferably about 105°. One or more detent mechanisms keep the toy in at least one of the first or second configurations until moved by the user. One such detent mechanism keeps the toy in the first angled striking configuration until the toy is swung like a bat by the user. A scalloped ball holding region may be formed in a distal portion of the launching section for holding and/or catching a ball.
A disc projectile throwing toy includes a disc placeable in and throwable from the toy, a handle section, and a launching section hingedly attached to and whippably rotatable with respect to the handle section. The distal end of the launching section includes a disc holder adapted to releasably hold the disc. The disc holder has a proximal disc gripper and a distal disc gripper each gripping the disc independently of the other. When the disc is inserted into the disc holder and the launching section is whipped with respect to the handle section, the disc holder releases the disc. The distal disc gripper has a greater gripping force on the disc than the proximal disc gripper, causing the disc to leave the proximal gripper first and then the distal gripper when thrown. This sequential release of the disc imparts rotational motion to the disc.
A long-distance projectile throwing toy. A launching section is hingedly attached at one end to a handle section. The distal end of the launching section includes a ball holder for releasably securing a ball/projectile loosely enough to allow the ball to come flying out of the ball holder when the device is whipped by the user. The device is configurable into at least two configurations by selectively moving an angular delimiter on one section into or out of engageability with various ramped portions of the other section. A throwing configuration keeps the launching section at a minimum angle to maximize the force imparted to the projectile and thus its distance and speed. A collapsed configuration enables the launching section to be substantially parallel with the handle section thereby enabling the device to be stored or shipped more easily. The ball holder imparts backspin to the projectile to maximize flight.
A flying disk toy includes an annular inner ring centered on the axis and connected with an outer ring, and a flexible material secured to the inner ring and creating a trampoline surface. The inner ring is detachably received in a groove in the outer ring. The groove has an undercut, and the inner ring has a portion including relatively movable flanges that engage in the undercut in the groove to resist removal of the inner ring from the groove.

A sports activity device playable, for example, as a device for launching and catching objects and as a tossable flying disc. Embodiments of the sports activity device includes an outer annular ring member and an inner annular ring assembly detachably engaged to the outer annular ring member. The inner annular ring assembly may include an inner annular ring member and an engagement assembly configured and operable to facilitate detachable engagement of the inner annular ring assembly with the outer annular ring member.
