Duncan Toys First Yo! - Best Beginner Yo-Yo for Kids, Responsive Yo Yo, YoYo Toy - Blue/Green

My kids are 4 and 6 and as a first yo-yo this is great. It’s soft and easy to learn and for those moments when they want to swing it instead it’s great!

This Toto is light weight and made of a soft material like silicone. The string is a good thickness and the whole small enough for little fingers. My daughter has lots of fun practicing her skills.

Very durable for kids the best 1 i ever bought

As some have said, this is not a great yoyo. Problem with all yoyos is that they eventually go "cockeyed" and once that happens they tangle up and stop. This one goes cockeyed almost immediately probably because of very high friction and very low mass.So why get it? Because it is soft so your kid can't use it as a nun-chuck and hurt themselves or someone else. Plus the string is shorter than a usual yoyo. It does do the very first return cleanly and easily. You can forget about tricks of course.

Grandson loves it! He’s 8 and able to do a few tricks with it. Great for motor skill development.

The construction of the yoyo seems durable, the soft silicone just the right stiffness and is perfect for new players, the description is pretty accurate, as far as I can tell as a seasoned yoyo player there are only two flaws with this this product that need your attention and if you can avoid the first mistake I made you will be in much better shape that I was when I first received this product. When you first unpack the yoyo the string is looped under its self to stop it from being unwound in the package, if you just grab the end of the string and pull you will end up with a knot on the inside of the yoyo that, after one throw, will be so tight you will not be able to remove it. This brings be to the second issue this knot normally would not be a big deal IF this yoyo could be taken apart and serviced but sadly, it is not. If you do manage to unwrap the string correctly. You will find that the yoyo string is double looped. good for new players but it means the yoyo only goes up and down. So when your kid gets better at the up and down part of using a yoyo you can take out one loop and the yoyo will sleep if the string is not too tight. However this yoyo does not have a barring so it will not sleep for long. Once your kid has mastered this yoyo in a few days/week I recommend the Duncan butterfly XT here on amazon for $8 its not squishy like this one but does not suffer from the same flaws as this yoyo.

Very easy for a kid to use would highly recommend.

Got this for my 7 year old son. He wanted to try yoyo and since it's his first time, I wanted to get the beginner one and it was a good decision. It's responsive so easier to play with. Even I like to play with it.

Compré 2, el mismo día que los abrimos, uno de ellos desprendió una de las 2 cubiertas, claro de inmediato me puse en contacto con AMazon, fueron amables y me ayudaron a solicitar un reembolso, mismo que se encuentra en proceso.
