Abstract
A tumbling toy that permits children to be received and supported within a central tube. The tumbling toy includes a pair of wheels that support the tube. A pull is connected to the tumbling toy, allowing the tumbling toy to be pulled over the ground or other support surface. As the tumbling toy is moved over the ground or support surface, it follows that children supported within the tube will be subjected to a tumbling action.
