boppers
Bouncy costume headbands
Boppers are lightweight toy hammers or inflatable clubs designed for playful hitting without causing harm—the kind children use to bonk each other at parties.
The term also refers to teenybopper fans of pop music, shortened from that word: The concert was packed with screaming boppers.
In older slang, boppers were devotees of bebop jazz.
