How to play children's gyro?

The children's gyro is played as follows:

1, Whiplash Gyroscope Whiplash Gyroscope is the earliest gyro game. Gyroscopes are made of small stakes. Sharpen the bottom and nail a dome on it. After winding the gyro with a whip rope, it is thrown obliquely with skillful power and the gyro begins to rotate. When the gyro is almost weak, whip it and it will keep spinning.

2. Launching a gyro: Launching a gyro is like the animation Gyro Warrior, with a gyro launcher and a metal gyro. The transmitter is a tooth extraction device. When the transmitter pulls hard, it will make the gyro rotate at high speed and fall vertically, but after a period of rotation, it will stop rotating because there is no power supplement.

3, fingertip gyro: fingertip gyro does not rotate on the ground, but rotates on the finger. Now it is generally used for decompression. Pinch the middle part of the fingertip gyro with your thumb and forefinger, and then stir the gyro to rotate. But also can rotate for a long time.

4. Turn the gyro by hand. Friends who have seen Inception should know the top of the protagonist. There is a post for rotation above the gyro. After rotating with your fingers, you can also rotate smoothly. This gyro does not need any transmitter, just your fingers, and it is also the easiest way to play the gyro.

The introduction of gyroscope is as follows:

The upper half of the shape is round and the lower half is pointed. It used to be made of wood, but now it is mostly made of plastic or iron. When playing, you can wrap the rope, pull the rope hard to make it rotate vertically, or use the elastic force of the spring to rotate. The traditional ancient gyro is roughly an inverted cone made of wood or iron, and the game is split with a whip. Gyroscopes emitted by transmitters have been used in modern times.

There are different opinions about the origin of gyro. In the Neolithic Age, there was a spinning tool-spindle. Some people speculate that the gyro may be developed from this, because the spindle will make a unique and interesting rotating motion when it lands, so it is regarded as a toy.

Li Ji 1926, the first modern archaeologist in China, found a ceramic gyro at Yangshao Cultural Site in Yin Xi Village, Xiaxian County, Shanxi Province, which was identified as a relic from 5000 BC to 3000 BC.
