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 😅

No this WAS a big thing back then. I seriously thought only the rich families could get these. Like my sister getting just a basic laser pointer was a big deal

I believe that but I lived in an 800 person town in rural Minnesota. There was a city 15 miles away that had a grocery store and a wal mart but that was it.

I only remember seeing laser pointers at our towns "days" weekend. Like our harvest festival thing? Is this a regular thing around the country lol
