Those required some skill and talent.. Not the same as just spinning something between your fingers.

Woah, I should have kept my mouth closed. Came home last night and my wife had bought the daughter a fidget spinner ...

This is from 1968 - The OP-YOP
There is a family story about my sister seeing one of TV and the commercial said something like "You need one, NOW!". She badgered by parents until they bought her one. A short while after having it, she said something like "Why did I have to have it, NOW?"

My son is buying old skateboards at garage sales. Cutting the spinner body out of the board and using the bearings to make them. He's all into the goofy things. Me? I don't get it.

Silly toys throughout the ages. Mom tossed my clickclacks, read they would start a fire if left in the sun. Remember Whee-Lo? The fidget spinner of the '60s.....?

We made "home-made" ones as well. I remember having to "wind" them by swinging in a big loop.

Now, in the world of fidget spinners, the highest echelons of fidget spinners, are using glow in the dark. I'm pleased I'm not 12 and have to jump on this bandwagon. Yoyos were enough and even then I wasn't very good.
