Burlington, Wisconsin - Spinning Top & Yo-Yo Museum, the "Top Lady"

An offbeat museum for ages 4-104: visit at certain times for a fun, fast two-hour program with hands-on time spinning 35 different and odd toy tops and games. Also see the awesome exhibit of 2,000 tops, yo-yos, and gyroscopes. There are ongoing videos and a unique live presentations by the Top Lady, who has appeared on Ripley's Believe It or Not TV, and is also the Tops Expert for the MGM movie My Summer Story. You will also see the world's smallest tops! (A magnifier is provided.) A personal museum visit, like no other: twists of science, turns of history, and where everyone is a kid again.
