A toy which, during play, is rotated in a horizontal circular path about a player's ankle and automatically counts the number of successive rotations of the toy. The toy (10) includes a collar (12), a drum (14) interconnected to the collar (12), and a counter mechanism (36). The collar (12) comfortably fits around an ankle region of a player. The drum (14) is connected to the collar at a predetermined distance therefrom and engages a ground surface during play. During play, the drum is connected along a generally straight line (26) to the collar (12) in a manner imparting centrifugal rotation thereto while simultaneously permitting the drum (14) to revolve about the straight line (26) between the collar (12) and drum (14). The counting mechanism (36) automatically counts and provides a visual indication as to the number of successive rotations of the toy about the ankle of the player as a function of a predetermined number of drum (14) revolutions. |
