Abstract
Abstract A construction toy that a child user may build up around himself. It consists of a plastic ring placed over the head and which rests upon the shoulders. From the ring there are suspended a plurality of synthetic resinous or wood strips, three in front and three in back spaced at regular intervals. Small strips are attachable to the above strips in desired number and spacing by the use of magnets. A pointed hat may be formed in completely assembled condition, or constructed using similar strips with a frame to fit on the head and small strips attached to the frame with magnets. Another pointed strip may be provided to be used as a sceptre or whatever the user''s imagination wishes him to believe.
