Abstract
A doll comprising a crying sound generator within the doll body, first switch means for actuating the crying sound generator, at least two additional switch means, and automatic selection means for determining which of the additional switch means is connected to stop the crying. The additional switch means may be operated by manipulating the doll, e.g., by giving it a bottle, by changing its diaper, or by picking it up and patting its back. In a play sequence the child actuates the switch to produce crying sounds and then attempts to stop the crying by handling the doll in one of the ways stated. When the child hits upon the type of handling which operates the particular additional switch means selected by the random selector, the crying sounds stop. A short sequence of sighing or cooing sounds may be used at the end of the crying sounds.
