a plaything;

a node positioned within the plaything, so that the instrument is responsive to the node resulting in a response signal sent to the processor and to the display.

2. The toy of claim 1 further comprising a sensor positioned within the platform.

3. The toy of claim 1 further comprising a selector positioned on the platform and electrically connected to the processor.

4. The toy of claim 1 further comprising an output cable and an output plug, wherein the output cable electrically connects the processor to the output plug.

5. The toy of claim 4, wherein the output plug is a RCA plug.

6. The toy of claim 1, wherein the instrument receives radio signals and sends a responsive signal to the CPU.

7. The toy of claim 6, where in the node positioned within the plaything is an RFID tag.

a plaything;

a node positioned within the plaything, so that the instrument is responsive to the node resulting in a response signal sent to the processor and to the display.

13. The toy of claim 12, wherein the output comprises a cable and an RCA plug.

14. The toy of claim 12, wherein the instrument receives radio frequencies and sends a responsive signal to the CPU.

15. The toy of claim 14, wherein the node positioned within the plaything is a RFID tag.

16. The toy of claim 12, wherein the instrument reads magnetically encoded data and sends a responsive signal to the CPU.

17. The toy of claim 16, where in the node positioned within the plaything includes magnetically encoded data.
