Abstract

A liking loop toy structure with a pair of ends which are adjacent to one another and which include either a magnet or a material attracted to a magnet.

1 . A toy comprising: 
 a linking loop type structure having an elongated tubular member with a pair of opposite free ends, said tubular member being formed in the shape of a closed loop with said free ends adjacent to one another, each of said ends including at least one of a magnet or a material attracted to a magnet.    
     
     
         2 . The toy of  claim 1  wherein each of said free ends includes a magnet.  
     
     
         3 . The toy of  claim 1  wherein said tubular member is constructed of stuffed fabric.  
     
     
         4 . The toy of  claim 1  including a retaining sack wherein said at least one magnet or a material attracted to a magnet is retained within said sack.  
     
     
         5 . The toy of  claim 4  wherein said sack is stitched to said tubular member.  
     
     
         6 . The toy of  claim 1  wherein said tubular member is formed in the shape of a closed loop having a circular configuration.  
     
     
         7 . The toy of  claim 1  wherein said tubular member is flexible.  
     
     
         8 . The toy of  claim 1  wherein said at least one magnet or a material attracted to a magnet is embedded within its respective free ends.  
     
     
         9 . The toy of  claim 1  including a plurality of said loop type structures connected together.  
     
     
         10 . A play accessory comprising: 
 an elongated tubular structure having a pair of free ends and one of a magnet or a material attracted to a magnet positioned at each of said free ends, said tubular member being of sufficient flexibility to be formed into a closed loop structure with said free ends adjacent to one another.    
     
     
         11 . The play accessory of  claim 10  wherein each of said free ends includes a magnet.  
     
     
         12 . The play accessory of  claim 10  wherein said tubular member is constructed of stuffed fabric.  
     
     
         13 . The play accessory of  claim 10  wherein said at least one magnet or material attracted to a magnet is retained within said sack.  
     
     
         14 . The play accessory of  claim 10  wherein said sack is stitched to said tubular member.  
     
     
         15 . The play accessory of  claim 10  wherein said at least one magnet or a material attracted to a magnet is embedded within its respective free end.  
     
     
         16 . A toy comprising the combination of: 
 a keeper having a body portion and a plurality of first loop structures connected with said body and    at least one second loop structure manually connectable to one of said first loop structures, at least one of said first loop structures and said second loop structure having a pair of free ends which are engageable with one another and which are manually separable from one another to connect said one loop structure to one of the other of first loop structures and said second loop structure.    
     
     
         17 . The toy of  claim 16  wherein said first loop structures are keeper loops being closed loop structures.  
     
     
         18 . The toy of  claim 17  wherein each of said free ends includes a magnet or a material attracted to a magnet.  
     
     
         19 . The toy of  claim 16  wherein each of said free ends includes a magnet or a material attracted to a magnet.  
     
     
         20 . The toy of  claim 19  wherein said at least one second loop structure comprises said pair of free ends.
