We call it elastic potential energy.
it comes from what ever wound it up in the first place. it is stored as elastic potential energy
Kinetic energy and potential energy is stored in the wound-up spring or gear of the toy mechanism.It is called conservation of energy.
I thought a toy glider did not have any propulsion. Toy airplanes can have an elastic drive, and when this is wound up prior to a flight the drive has potential energy

Energy is stored in a wound up spring. The energy is released in a controlled manner by the use of gears, and turns the hands of the watch.

The spring is wound tighter, this stores the potential energy. The spring unwinding turns the potential energy into kinetic energy.
Whatever winds the tool up - usually energy stored in your muscles.
Yes the cord is wound and stored inside the machine for safety,
ATP
Potential energy to kinetic energy
Elastic Potential Energy It is both, when the toy is fully turned and awaiting for you to let go, it is at 100% potential energy. when you let go and it unwinds, the toys potential energy is transferred into kinetic, and depending on the toy, thermo and other forms of energy. Once the toy has fully exhausted its potential energy and fully unwounded itself, it is simply an object with no potential or kinetic energy. Always remember, energy cannot be destroyed, only transferred, and there is no such thing as a perpectual motion machine.
