The yo-yo is an object made up of an axle connected to two disks and a length of string looped around the axle. It is played by holding the free end of the string, allowing gravity or the power of a throw to spin the yo-yo and unwind the string, then allowing the yo-yo to spin the string and unwind the string, then allowing the yo-yo to wind itself back to its original form. "yo-yoing" is the product of "yo-yoing."
The yo-yo is thought to have been invented in ancient Greece. A child playing with a yo-yo is depicted in a Greek vase painting dating from 500 BC.
