Abstract

A ball and paddle toy for generating an illumination effect when activated. The toy includes a paddle having a head portion and a handle portion configured for grasping by a user. A switch operable when a force exceeding a threshold force is applied thereto is connected to the paddle head portion. An elastic cord is connected at one end to the switch and at another end to a ball. An illuminating element is connected to the switch and is activated when the elastic cord applies a force exceeding the threshold force to the switch. When in use, the paddle is used to hit the ball, which causes the cord stretch and apply a force to the switch for activating the illuminating element.
