Abstract
A doll playset includes a padded cloth pouch having an interior within which a small doll heartbeat and kick simulating unit are received and supported. A pair of shoulder straps are secured to the pouch to facilitate the wearing of the pouch on the front abdominal area of a child user. The heartbeat and kick simulator includes a motor driven mechanism which produces undulating motion of a pair of kick simulating buttons supported upon the front surface of the simulator. A triangular cam is coupled to the undulating mechanism to provide flexing of an elongated resilient sounder resulting in heartbeat-like sounds when the unit is activated. A push button is supported upon the front surface of the simulator and may be depressed to operate the unit from the exterior of the cloth pouch.
