So COOL! To start off it was a little bit hard to find, the yo yo museum is located inside another store when you arrive,it will say you have arrived and you will just see a shop if you go in there is the yo yo muesuem in the back. Or you can park on the street and walk down a nicer walking ally from across the street to the actual front door. The world's largest yo yo was our attraction to see, and it was great so cool to see in person! But the reason I am here to write this review is to for the great staff! We all are bad at using a yo yo and really had not tried in years. One of the employees there showed us amazing tricks like I had only seen on TV aswell as teaching us the basic maneuvers and where to learn more. He recommended us beginners yo yo's and how to use those specifically with in store demos. All in all he was the star their and taught us so much I have now gotten much better at using a yo yo and can do a couple tricks as well thanks so...

It’s really fun to learn about the advancement of yo-yos overtime. The owner and his staff are very knowledgeable and more than willing to have long conversations about yo-yos with you. The museum is also conveniently located in a pretty amazing toy store. I highly recommend...
