Tornado Tube
Simple, yet clever 1" dia. by 3" long plastic device to demonstrate the vortex effect of a tornado. Partially fill with water one of the two half-gallon size plastic soda bottles which you supply. Screw the bottles into opposite ends of the tube which we supply. Tip so the full bottle is on top and give it a circular starting whirl. Presto! You have a vortex. Call it a tornado if you're a meteorologist, a Charybdis if you're a classicist, or a whirlpool if you're into oceanography. Lots of fun and a fine opportunity to attempt to explain the effects of the earth's rotation on water draining out of a bathtub. The phenomena are related we're told, but good luck!!

Cute As A Worm
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
Yes they are, when they're inchworms (you could look it up) like this 3-1/2" long green-plastic cutie-pie. Wind him up and watch him scrunch up his cute little wormy self and then unscrunch to quickly inch his way along. Makes little kids giggle and cats goggle.

The Buzzer Of Joy
WARNING: CHOKING HAZARD-Small Parts. Not for children under 3 yrs.
The original Joy Buzzer was called the Joke Buzzer (1932 U.S. patent #1845735, Soren Adams) and it replaced the more dangerous Zapper, which is lost to time, more's the pity. Our standard wind-up model is a 1-3/8" dia circle of perennial vibrating fun, with a 7/8" dia finger loop. (Watch for the solar-powered joy buzzer, still under development.)

House-Shaped Flasher
We don't know why this flasher is shaped like a house, so don't ask. Nice safety item, though, for biking or nighttime walks. Measures 2-3/4" x 1-1/2" tall x 9/16" thick, with a clear front lens shaped like a bungalow and a bright, flashing red LED behind it. Pocket clip on the back. Runs on (2) replaceable button-cell batteries.

Pastel Pigs
Not just pigs, but pigs in pork-pie hats, quite appropriately. Pigs in chartreuse and pale orange (our pick). They're actually small, 4-3/4" long, plastic piggy banks with just the coin slot, so you have to slaughter them to get your money back. (Just like the real thing.) Just squealing for craft and decorative applications, and perfect for teaching boared students the art of saving. Buy in bulk and give the whole class a lesson in basic economics.
