Drop in at the National Yo-Yo Museum in Chico

See the world's largest display of yo-yos in this kick-back college town.

It's not everday that you get to visit a place devoted entirely to toys--and not just any toys--but ones that glide up and down on a string. Yo-yos have been charming children--and grownups--for generations. Remember Tom Smothers as Yo-Yo Man? (No? Take a spin on YouTube and feel the power of "yo.") This little gem of a museum is tucked away in a downtown toy shop at 320 Broadway Street . Even though it's not big in size, it does have some pretty impressive exhibits, including the world’s largest wooden yo-yo, weighing in at 256 pounds (and aptly named Big-Yo).
