Slinky, metal, extra large

The metal slinky is an entertaining spring toy that is both fun and educational. It provides an engaging and memorable way for kids to learn about longitudinal waves, standing waves, transverse waves, and more!

Compared to many similar slinkies on Amazon, this one is an excellent price!

This extra long slinky:

• has a 7.5-centimeter diameter
• extends to a whopping 9 meters
• measures about 10 centimeters when compressed

Of course, many adults remember the hours of fun spent watching the original slinky "walk" down the stairs. This long scale "super slinky" has the same stair-walking capabilities as the novelty toy we all know and love! Some reviewers say this version is smaller in diameter than the original but also longer, heavier, and stretchier. Overall, it's a sure-to-please modern update on an old classic!

Slinkies are a whole lot of fun, and can even be used as a fidget toy for your kids.

To use in educational settings, this slinky works well for learning about various physics concepts (either individually or in groups).
