spinning tops
Gyroscopic children's playthings
Spinning tops are toys designed to rotate rapidly on a point, staying balanced through angular momentum until friction slows them.
Children spin them by twisting a stem, pulling a string, or using a launcher.
The toy is ancient and nearly universal across cultures.
The kids competed to see whose spinning top would last longest.
