Remember hula hoops? I am pretty sure I am not the only kid that had one or two of these toys. I know they are still sold at some stores but I have not seen kids out playing with them for a while. They were the "in" toy when I was growing up. Let me tell you, I was not very coordinated so it was hard for me to work my hips to get it going for more than 2 seconds. I could do pretty good using my neck, though. Hmm...maybe that has something to do with my neck pain as an adult? Such a cheap toy but hours of fun. And just think of the exercise we got with these rings! Maybe we should all go out and find a hula hoop and show our kids how it's done. Or maybe they will show us. Either way it will provide a few laughs on your Saturday.
Happy H day!

ReplyDelete"H" for hula hoops is a good topic.I'm also participating in the a-z challenge. Visit my blog:)
ReplyDeleteI bought a sports hoop for workouts. I really stunk at it at first. It left interesting bruises around my midriff. Haven't used it in awhile because of that.
ReplyDeleteMy daughter and I just saw someone hula-hooping in an aisle at the store last night. We once had several hula hoops at the house, but-alas-I couldn't keep it going well enough to demonstrate. ha
