Original Metal Slinky Jr. measures 1.5in. diameter wide by 1.15in high. Recommended for children 5 years of age and older. From the Manufacturer The POOF-Slinky 125 Metal Original Slinky Jr. continues to be a constant entertainer as it walks down stairs or comes alive in a child's hands. This classic toy stretches like an accordion, bounces and walks down steps one end at a time while making that classic Slinky sound. Toy history was made when Richard James conducted an experiment with tension springs. During the experiment, one of the springs fell to the floor and began to "walk". The Slinky debuted 1945 at Gimbals Department Store in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and all (400) Slinkys for sale were purchased in 90-minutes. Since then, over 300-million Slinkys have been sold worldwide. The Slinky is filled with nostalgia and has been featured in Disney Pixar's "Toy Story" movie franchise. It's the official state toy of Pennsylvania and famous for one of the most popular jingles of all time, "It's Slinky". Though it was developed to be a toy, the Slinky was used by soldiers in Vietnam as an antenna and a therapy tool for hand eye coordination. Slinky Jr. is smaller than the original Slinky and is made of silver metal for long lasting wiggly-jiggly Slinky fun! Slinky Jr. comes boxed and perfect for presents, party favors, Easter baskets, grab bags, prizes and stocking stuffers. The Slinky is truly a timeless toy, fun for adults and kids alike.

Review: Great solution x 2 - Second time buying this item to attach to a bird feeder pole. Stops the squirrels and provides entertainment for us!
Review: What can I say, It’s a slinky! - If you remember these as a kid, this is much smaller ( it does say Junior ) but it’s still a slinky. Bought it as a stocking stuffer, will probably do it again next year but will try to find the bigger ones

Second time buying this item to attach to a bird feeder pole. Stops the squirrels and provides entertainment for us!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ What can I say, It’s a slinky!
*by L***H on February 6, 2019*

If you remember these as a kid, this is much smaller ( it does say Junior ) but it’s still a slinky. Bought it as a stocking stuffer, will probably do it again next year but will try to find the bigger ones

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Tiny
*by N***E on March 13, 2025*

Slinky is very small so if the stairs are bigger than the slinky which most will be, it will not work. Definitely overpriced should be $2 max.
