I have found a few of these little plastic things scattered around my 15 year old sons room, and was wondering what they are?

When I was a kid, centuries ago, I lived in a city in Ohio that tarred and gravelled the alleys. Right after a new tarring, I’d take my Radio Flyer into the alley and pick up all the pretty ones. Some of them were beautiful!! They were all the size of a pea. Some I’d leave in the garage in a special place, but the really pretty ones would go in a place of honor in my room. Anyone else do nutty things like this?????
