An all-time classic toy, the Slinky was invented over 60 years ago by Richard James and his wife Betty, and is still as much fun today! Great for any youngster, this original metal Slinky is also a nostalgic gift for anyone who grew up playing with one.
The Slinky still has a timeless appeal that will encourage inquisitive children to investigate just what a Slinky can do. For added geek appeal, Slinkys are also handy for science experiments involving wave motion and some electronics too. But, of course, the Slinky's favourite party piece is walking downstairs as the coils stretch and reform as gravity moves it down each step.
Find out for yourself what makes a Slinky so much fun!
