Description:

There is a museum in Chico, CA dedicated to the lost art of yo-yoing. This toy may seem very simple compared to the electronic gadgets of today but it is a feat to master this string-on-a-spool. This museum goes back 80 years into the yo-yo's history although it was though to be first invented 500 BCE. The world's largest yo-yo museum is located inside a yo-yo store called Bird in Hand. Don't miss out on a photo opportunity with the giant yo-yo, measuring 50 inches in diameter and weighing in at 256 lbs.
