DIY reversing top

Spinning tops, perfect for birthday loot bags, party favours, a tooth fairy gift, stocking stuffer, or just a little fun just because. There is a little ‘surprise’ with this top, which is fun to discover for oneself. With the right momentum and conditions, spinning the top makes it 'stand' and spin on its head.

We find these blank wooden tops a great activity for young children, starting at around 6 years old (they could colour it at a younger age, but the finesse to make this top spin perhaps starts at around 6 years old, although it can vary), and then even for older children and adults, painting or drawing a pattern that will optically come to life in motion is a fun little activity. Pencil crayons or our Stockmar paint with a little beeswax finish recommended. Stockmar watercolours or Stockmar paints in a tin work well.
