Paragraph 1 Although it has never regained the popularity it held in the 1920s, the pogo stick has never stopped being made and
sales have remained relatively steady. However, the pogo stick has gone through several changes. In 1947, Mr. Hansburg designed a new type of steel pogo stick with a longer-lasting spring, and, as recently as 2001, an American company came out with an air-powered pogo stick made from aircraft- grade aluminum. Time Magazine voted this version of the pogo stick to be a “retro favorite” and one of the best inventions of 2001. Paragraph 2 Surely you have seen a hula hoop. Many people think that the hula hoop was invented in the 1950s. However, the hula hoop is an ancient toy. No company and no single inventor can claim to have invented the first hula hoop. The ancient Greeks used hooping as a form of exercise. In the past, hoops were made from metal, wood, bamboo, grass, and even vines. Paragraph 3 The materials to make yoyos have changed.

In 1985 and again in 1992, NASA sent yoyos on its space shuttles.
