Céčka (English: C or Ces) is a plastic toy from Czechoslovakia popular in 70s and 80s, formerly used as a parts of door hangings. The former intention was to use Céčka as a belt for woman's clothing, but it was a failure. Next attempt was to use it as a parts of door hangings but it was a failure too. The real interest raised among the children that set off Céčková horečka (Céčka flu). It became, from the unmarketable garbage, scarce material almost instantly. The basic shape is a letter C.

Plastic parts can be chained, it served for several games. It also inspired Michal David's song Každý má céčka.
