A device is provided for supporting an accessory in an artificial bathing water enclosure. The device includes a buoyant base for supporting the accessory. An anchoring means anchors the base to a side wall of the bathing water enclosure. The base either floats freely, or is pulled down somewhat while still protruding from the top water surface. The preferred anchoring means includes one or more suction cups attached to the side walls of the enclosure. The preferred anchoring means maintains the base upright. It includes a boss and a holder that are slidable with respect to each other. At least two suction cups hold the boss attached to the side wall, while the holder is attached to the base, and slides up and down as the base moves up and down. The holder has threads for receiving matingly threads of a complementary base.

Anchored floating device for supporting a bath tub accessory

A game element, a game and a method for playing a game employing a plurality of game elements. The game element comprising a body that is disposed in contact with a playing surface and in an upright position relative to the surface. Incorporated in the body is a sound emission assembly which emits a sound component directly from the body when the body moves from the upright position in a predetermined displacement. The game comprising a plurality of game elements having respective sound components and being disposed uprightly to form an array so that, when toppled in cascade, they emit the respective sound components sequentially along the array to generate one or more sound sequences. The method comprising the steps of: (i) selecting the shape of an array to erect; (ii) selecting a sound sequence to be emitted; (iii) selecting a plurality of game elements according to the sound sequence and the sound components associated with such elements; (iv) erecting the selected array by placing the selected game elements uprightly in adjacent positions; and (v) initiating cascade toppling of the erected array, so that the selected sound sequence is emitted along the array by emission of the respective sound components when each game element topples.
