Remote controlled talking amusement device

Claim 1

A children's amusement device useful to improve a child's hand and eye coordination, comprising: a base, first transducer means secured to said base for transmitting an audible signal from said base, at least two juxtaposed fanciful heads secured to said base, each of said heads having at least one movable head portion, said base having a pair of motive means for independently moving said head portion of each of said heads, a control unit physically separate from said base, said control unit having mounted centrally thereon a second transducer means secured to said control unit for receiving an audible signal, said control unit also having a pair of opposed manually operated actuating means secured to said control unit on either side of said second transducer means, each of said actuating means operative to actuate one of said motive means to selectively move one of said head portions synchronously with respect to said audible output signal, means for functionally interconnecting said base and said control unit for operating said amusement device and for simultaneously enabling said control unit to be physically remotely disposed from said base during operation of said amusement device, said functionally interconnecting means including means for electrically interconnecting said first transducer means and said second transducer means and means for operatively interconnecting said motive means and said actuating means, such that a child can operate said device by speaking into said centrally mounted second transducing means while simultaneously actuating one of said motive means by operating one of said manually operated actuating means with one hand and thereafter actuating the other of said means with the other hand to simulate a conversation between said fanciful heads while all the time speaking into said centrally mounted second transducer means.
