Toy Review: Classic Slinky
Author: Rhonda
I purchased this slinky in order to enlighten my son on the pleasures of playing with one of the classic toys. As I worked to build up the suspense, we unleashed the slinky at the top of the stairs only to have our hopes and dreams dashed when I discovered that it doesn’t work in our house. Apparently, our steps are too wide to allow movement of the slinky from one step to another. My toddler looked at me as if I’d gone a little bit crazy.
What a disappointment! I don’t remember having trouble getting the slinky to perform feats when I was younger, but now it doesn’t seem to do much of anything. Perhaps I need to educate myself on new things to do with it.
My boy likes to hold it and drag it around for a little bit, but the novelty wears off fast. For now, it makes for a real nice decoration in and among the other classic toys on his bookshelf.
