A playset comprises a plurality of hotspots positioned within a plurality of scenes. A switching mechanism is configured to selectively couple to the each of the plurality of hotspots and is communicatively coupled with a controller. The controller is configured to establish communication with a first object using a first hotspot and determine an object type of the first object and a location of the first object within the playset. The location of the first object corresponds to a scene that contains the first hotspot. The controller is further configured to select an interactive media based on the object type and the location of the first object, select a first media file based on the selected interactive media, and instruct the first media file to be output on an output device.

An apparatus for educating children comprising inserting a template into a cover for a protective helmet so that the cover is stretched and once the template is inserted into the cover it forms a disk-shaped assembly; providing at least one light tubes wherein the light tubes are to be affixed to said cover; determining the arrangement of said light tube to be affixed on to said cover; determining a plurality of tabs wherein said tabs will be sufficient to hold said light tube; opening at least two opposing holes on said cover around said tabs whereby forming said tabs on said cover; placing the disk-shaped assembly on top of a bottom plate of a heat press; placing a patch on top of the disk-shaped assembly; placing a heat press cover sheet on top of the disk-shaped assembly; pulling down an upper plate of the heat press so that the heat press cover sheet makes contact with the upper plate of the heat press when the heat press is closed; and pulling up the upper plate.

A reusable, ornamental air-filled balloon structure includes a large, elongate, unbalanced upper ornamental chamber. The chamber has a valve on its bottom for inflating for use and deflating for storage of the balloon structure. A lower base ornamental chamber, that is adapted to rest on a flat surface or plane, has a centralized pocket with an aperture for transversely receiving the bottom of the upper chamber. A hidden valve for inflating the lower chamber for use and deflating for storage is provided. The upper chamber air valve is capable of being passed through the aperture and anchored to the lower chamber to secure the two chambers together while the upper chamber stays in an upright condition ideal for display. Common household filled cans are placed in the hidden centralized pocket to weigh the balloon structure down and keep it in place. The height of the upper ornamental chamber is at least three times taller than the height of the lower base chamber.

Putting clothes on a robot is facilitated. A robot includes an operation control unit that selects a motion, a drive mechanism that executes the selected motion, a mode setting unit that sets a mode of the robot, and a power supply control unit. The operation control unit restricts a torque of an actuator included in the drive mechanism when a clothes changing mode is set, and the power supply control unit maintains energization of an electronic circuit that realizes a function of the operation control unit, even while in the clothes changing mode.

A posable toy figure is disclosed. The posable toy figure includes: a limb structure comprising a flexible support member at least partially enclosed in a pliable material member that is physically distinct from the flexible support member; a first rigid body member that encloses a first portion of the limb structure, the first rigid body member comprising a connection interface that extends from an exterior of the first rigid body member; and a second rigid body member that encloses a second portion of the limb structure, the second rigid body member and the first rigid body member being spatially separated such that the limb structure is exposed between the first body member and the second body member.

In an aspect, a toy assembly is provided, and includes a housing and a toy vehicle inside the housing. The housing has a movable housing portion, and at least one functional element that is movable and is separate from the movable housing portion. The toy vehicle has a drive wheel that, when driven in a first rotational direction causes the drive wheel to drive movement of the functional element so as to carry out a function without driving movement of the toy vehicle towards the movable housing portion, and when driven in a second rotational direction causes the drive wheel to drive the vehicle towards the movable housing portion.

An automatically opening and closing inflatable holiday ornament includes a box that has a base, a plurality of side panels hingedly connected to the base, and a top portion connected to each of the plurality of side panels. The ornament further includes a motor, a plurality of pull cables, such that each of the plurality of pull cables has a first end operatively connected to the motor and a second end connected to one of the plurality of side panels. The ornament also includes a first blower, an inflatable disposed in the box and surrounding the first blower such that operation of the first blower blows air into the inflatable to inflate the inflatable, and a controller operatively connected to the motor and to the first blower such that the controller controls operation of the motor and the blower.

An intravenous pole accessory (30) includes a stuffed doll having a head portion (32) and a main portion (33) that covers a major portion of an intravenous pole (36) upon placement of the accessory on the intravenous pole. The accessory can include at least a first attachment member (31 or 31A) coupled to a portion (32) of the stuffed doll configured and arranged for retaining the stuffed doll in a vertical position when the first attachment member is attached to a top portion (36A) of the intravenous pole, and a hole (34) in the main portion of the stuffed doll configured to allow access to a medical device (37) attached to the intravenous pole when the at least first attachment member is attached to the top portion of the intravenous pole.
