Preferred term

yo-yos  

Definition

  • A yo-yo is easily recognizable by children and adults around the world, and most people have played with a yo-yo at one time or another. Although a yo-yo has a simple design and seems equally simplistic to master, this belies the versatility of play and the complexity of tricks that are possible.
