@WendyDLN That makes sense. My youngest wanted a slinky and within an hour was detangled several times. Then it broke... yep, broke. It was one of those cheap, colorful, plastic models.

I'd be careful about the metal ones. From personal experience, it can be used unintentionally as a weapon.
Behold the Urumi:: what happens when a slinky and a sword get together.

@lucifargundam @WendyDLN The funny thing about kids, anything can become a weapon at anytime. I am hoping they don't do this with their slinkies. :)
