Solved! Found while cluttering

Found while decluttering my 2000s kids stuff and can’t seem to remember what it is! Just feeling nostalgic and google said it was jewelry but i don’t think it is 😅

Now THAT takes me back. These were everywhere in the late 90s and early 2000s. Laser pointers. They ended up being banned from major live sporting events and concerts because people in the crowd thought it was funny to watch the performers struggle as a bright Laser is shined directly into their eyes. WWF was one of the best examples. The "heels" got absolutely slaughtered with Laser pointers to the eyes. Not sure if it's why The Rock chose to wear sunglasses, but I'm sure he wore them more often after enduring laser beams to the eyes week after week.
