I have lost count on the number of yoyos I had bought for my 3 girls over the years. We had tried expensive yoyos and cheap yoyos but none survived for over a year. The string of the yoyos often got entangled and when this happened, my girls would open up the cover to try detangling it. After a few times doing that, the yoyos were permanently dismembered. I vowed never to buy my girls yoyo again after these incidents. However, recently I could not resist my girls’ pleas when they begged me to buy them a very attractive and cheap yo yo at a toy shop. I succumbed to their pleas and I regretted. The same fate fell on that yoyo. I think that will be the last time I will ever buy a yoyo for my girls.
