A finger-mounted device for launching a projectile in response to a flick of a finger by a user. The finger-mounted device may comprise a securing means for securing a launcher to the finger of the user. The securing means may comprise a strap, loop, or cinch. The finger-mounted device may further comprise a launch guide extending outwardly from a base member. A projectile may be mounted onto or into the launch guide. The projectile is launched in response to the user flicking the finger, using the thumb as a tensioning means. The projectile may take a wide variety of forms.

A gyrating disc is disclosed having a circular and flat shape with an edge extending perpendicularly around its circumference. The gyrating disc has a weight on the interior or exterior of the edge, or between the center and the edge. When the gyrating disc is launched in a clockwise or counterclockwise manner, the disc achieves a gyrating flight, moving on its horizontal plane and stable at the vertical axis established in the center of the disc.

An apparatus and method of improving hand-eye coordination wherein the present invention includes a throw member that is operable to product a different return trajectory versus a projected trajectory when thrown against a vertical wall. The present invention includes a throw member that is configured to be utilized by a user. The throw member includes a body that is elliptical in shape so as to have circumferential radius that will produce a second trajectory that I s different from that of a first trajectory. The first trajectory occurs when the throw member is hurled at a vertical support surface. Furthermore, the second trajectory is the return trajectory. The method incorporates steps such as but limited to tracking the throw member during its travel on it projected directory and its return trajectory.

Devices, assemblies and methods are described for launching a projectile. A launching device includes a support extending along a first plane and having an outward surface and an inward surface spaced from the outward surface, the inward surface defining a space. The launching device further includes first and second elastic members extending between opposing first and second elastic member ends, respectively. The first and second elastic member ends are coupled to the support with the first elastic member ends spaced from each other and the second elastic member ends spaced from each other. The launching device further includes a handle grip coupled to the support and extending along a second plane perpendicular to the first plane.

A throwing toy that can simulate the throwing of a weapon. The throwing toy has a head and a handle that are molded from a soft polymeric foam. Reinforcement elements can be molded into the foam to provide structural integrity. The head of the toy has a face surface, a rear surface, a top surface, and a bottom surface. The handle extends from the bottom surface of the head. When the throwing toy is thrown toward a target, one of the surfaces of the head is likely to impact the target. Contact connectors, such as suction cups, are affixed to at least one of the surfaces of the head. The contact connectors are set at different positions and preferably at different angles to provide contact attachments across a wide range of contact angles.

An amusement device in the general form of a reusable water capsule that explodes with the affect of toys commonly referred to as water-balloons and the like. User may choice between a reusable exploding water capsule to be thrown at a target and a device for shooting a directional stream of water similar to a “squirt gun”. A variety of various shaped flexible components each of which including a first wall with a first wall external surface and a first wall internal surface, and a second wall with a second wall external surface and a second wall internal surface for interconnection. This toy may be used as packaging, within the capsule, for additional items. The combination of unique design with the typically chosen softness of the material used to make the capsule means much of the kinetic energy in a throw is dissipated in a water burst.
