An accelerometer may work better than a tilt switch.

A tilt switch in toys is a "BB" (small metal ball) and two wires it shorts between.

As far as the sensor, just looking for something cheap and easy and figured a tilt sensor might work fine like the RB44145. Not many carried by Digikey. Might also try a vibration sensor like a SW-10820P. Will just have to see how sensitive they are.
