A decade ago, toys were a lot simpler. One of the most famous and popular toys was a yo-yo. Yoyo’s were circular plastic objects with string wrapped around them. Once the string is swung, the yo-yo falls down the string, and eventually stops as the level of string decreases fully.

Tricks can be performed with one, or multiple yoyos (i.e. throwing yoyos down, then straight back up, just before the string has fully decreased will bring the yo-yo back up etc). They came in different colours, and were very popular in schools. Most schools banned them as they were seen as a deterrent from hard work.
