Balancing toy set

A balancing toy set, comprising:

• a base portion for positioning on a support surface such as a table or the like;
• and a plurality of balancing members each having complementary fulcrum portions at the tops and bottoms of at least some of the members for vertically stacking on the base, each balancing member having a pair of opposing outwardly and downwardly extending arms having weighted hollow spherical balls on the ends thereof, the arms being of sufficient length and weight so as to lower the center of gravity of the respective balancing members below the bottom of the respective member, said balancing members being shaped in the form of various types of animals of different sizes comparable with their species with arms differing in length in proportion to the sizes of the balancing members for progressively stacking the balancing members in a decreasing size order vertically above said base, said weights on the ends of said arms differing in amount but being proportionate to the length of the arms and the respective corresponding sizes of the animal characters formed by the balancing members.

A balancing toy set, comprising:

• a base assembly including a base portion, having a recess in the top thereof, for positioning on a support surface such as a table or the like and a plurality of stackable members for stacking on said base portion, one of said stackable members being spherical with an upstanding fulcrum portion in the form of a lug at the top thereof;
• and a plurality of balancing members each having complementary fulcrum portions at the top and bottom of the member for vertically stacking on the base assembly, each of said balancing members having a pair of opposing outwardly and downwardly extending arms of different lengths having weights on the ends thereof, the arms being of sufficient length and the weights being of sufficient weight so as to lower the center of gravity of the respective balancing members below the bottom of the respective member so that the balancing members can be stacked in the stack with the length of the arms and the weight of the weights of the balancing members decreasing upwardly in the stack.
