Collection: Spinning Tops for Kids

A spinning top is the oldest toy still worth buying. Ours light up. This collection has the Spineez light up spinning tops 12-pack in blue, the flying saucer spinners in red, and the stacking spinning tops, a 15-piece set where kids stack the tops and see how tall a spinning tower can get.

Why 12-packs. Spinning tops are the classic party favor and treasure box toy. Twelve in a box means one order covers a birthday party, a classroom prize box or a dozen goodie bags, and every kid gets the same thing, which ends the arguments before they start.

How to spin a top. Pinch the stem, twist your fingers fast and let go on a hard, flat surface. Tile beats carpet. The light comes on from the motion itself on the LED tops, so a good spin means a brighter show.

Ages 3 and up. Also see the gyro wheel in our retro toys if your kid likes things that spin.
