Abstract
A multiple-choice verbal sound toy uses a microprocessor to produce one song or poem that has at least one space or slot for introducing a supplementary verbal sound segment to complete the song or poem. The child user may be given a plurality of different choices of segments for completing the song or poem. For example, the microprocessor may play a song such as 'Old McDonald Had a Farm', and a child user may select--as by pushing one of several keys associated with pictures of different farm animals--the verbal sounds made by that particular animal, to be inserted into each verse of the song. The song or poem may have a series of slots or spaces and there may be a plurality of sets of verbal sounds to be inserted with the individual sounds in each set being a plurality of the same sounds or a variety of different but related sounds. Sounds may be inserted in successive verses cumulatively, in the order (or reverse order) in which they are first introduced.
