What a great way to get kids to exercise without them even realizing they're doing it! If you don't quite recall the Skip-It device, allow us to refresh your memory. It attached to your ankle and you would then have to spin it around, skipping over it continuously. It was actually really tiring and a proper workout when we look back on it!
Skip-it was released in the '80s and wasn't exactly a totally original idea at the time. It was loosely based on a toy from the '60s called the Lemon Twist, which worked in pretty much the same way, except it was a lemon-shaped weight you had to skip over. If you own one of these sweat-inducing devices, it might be time to cash in. An original Skip-It from the '80s can sell for up to $100.
