More about the product

Slinky is a classic toy invented by Richard James in the early 1940s. It can perform a number of tricks. When set in motion on a stepped platform such as a stairway, the slinky transfers energy along its length in a longitudinal wave. The whole spring descends end over end in a periodical motion, as if it were somersaulting down one step at a time.
