Abstract
A toy suitable for attaching to infant furniture has an elongated track having ends with connecting members positioned on the ends of the track for connecting to an appropriate portion of the infant furniture, such as the side rails of a crib. A housing is mounted along the track. The housing includes a motor and associated components which drive the housing along the track. A stop member is located on each of the ends of the track. The housing includes a sensing lever which is engaged against the stop members on the respective ends of the track, so as to switch the direction of travel of the housing along the track. The housing also includes a musical device and a gear train driven by the motor for producing a constant output to drive the musical device.
