16. Ventriloquist Device
Hoo boy, imagine all the mischief a budding Dennis The Menace (the weird, blonde American one; not the cool, spiky-headed British one) could get up to with the ability to through their voice. Making teachers look like they're saying rude things, imitating your mother, making the dog talk? It's difficult to actually learn the skills required for successful ventriloquism, so the opportunity to fool teacher, friends and family with an instrument that helps you throw your voice is a must-have! Except it was just a kazzo that made your voice sound funny.
