Abstract
A toy comprises a resiliently deformable member, a first contactor defining a first contacting surface, and a second contactor defining a second contacting surface. At least one of the first and second contactors defines a concave surface. The resiliently deformable member supports the first and second contactors for movement along a main axis between an engaged configuration in which the first contacting surface is contact with the second contacting surface and a disengaged configuration in which the first contacting surface is disengaged from the second contacting surface. The resiliently deformable member biases the first and second contactors in opposite directions along the main axis. Application of force to displace the first and second contactors along the main axis creates a sound when the first and second contactors are disengaged from each other.
