Abstract:
A toy comprising:a base unit including an electronic switch, said switch being situated by a user of the way during play; andan electronic sound generator having a first electronic memory track comprised of sequenced, individually stored sound elements each of said sound elements of said first track being individually accessible by said sound generator, said first track of sequenced sound elements forming a recognizable sound recitation when sequentially generated, said electronic sound generator farther having a second electronic memory track comprised of a like number of sequenced individually stored sound elements, each of said sound elements of said second track being individually accessible by said sound generator, said second track of sequenced sound elements forming a recognizable sound recitation when sequentially generated, said second track being related to said first track such that individual sound elements from said first and second tracks are interchangeable at any given point during sequential output thereof, said sound generator being connected to said switch, said toy being operative wherein said sound generator checks the state of the switch and generates a sound element from said first track if said switch is in a first state or generates a sound element from said second track if said switch is in a second state, said sound generator repeatedly checking the state of the switch after a sound element is output and generating the next sequential sound element responsive to the state of the switch,whereby the toy is operative for generating a sequential sound recitation that switches from a first track to a second track.
