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.

A sports figure lawn ornament for improving the aesthetic appeal of a lawn. The lawn ornament includes an elongated stem with a first end and a second end. At the first end is a main body and at the second end is a tip configured to secure the lawn ornament to the ground. The main body includes a simulated torso, a simulated head, and a post extending perpendicularly therefrom. A simulated leg assembly includes an aperture and a first leg and a second leg extending from the aperture. The leg assembly slides onto the post such that the first leg and second leg can freely rotate about the aperture.

Embodiments described provide an integrated hand-held catch net apparatus including a multi-axis sensor in electrical communication with a microcontroller and memory module to provide a plurality of colored light schemes and pre-programmed sounds/songs in responds to movement and tilting of the apparatus. Further included is a light toy figurine releasably attached to the catch net assembly to simulate capture both a fish or insect.

The present disclosure relates to a puzzle system interworking with an external device and, more specifically, to a puzzle system interworking with an external device, which outputs an event corresponding to a puzzle to arouse interest of a user when the user completes the puzzle, and also outputs an event corresponding to an image forming the puzzle to increases interest when the user clicks on the image, so that the puzzle system can used as a learning tool as well as a game tool.

A carrier sack with a first fastener along a surface portion thereof is provided. The present invention facilitates a blank landscape for children to play with objects having a second fastener that can be detachably mated to the first fastener so that when finished, the child can put the objects in the carrier sack, by turning it inside out, or may leave the objects on top of the carrier sack for display, without falling off. The plurality of objects may be adapted to have upward facing eye elements for developmental engagement with the child-user while the child is partially enveloped through an opening of the carrier sack.

There is provided an information processing apparatus including an attribute management unit configured to manage a variable attribute value associated with each one or more characters existing in a real space, a detection unit configured to detect an interaction event between a first character and a real object by using an image captured by a camera that captures the real space, and a setting unit configured to set a rule for changing the attribute value of the first character depending on the interaction event. In a case where the detection unit has detected the interaction event, the attribute management unit changes the attribute value of the first character in accordance with the rule set by the setting unit.
