The National Toy Hall of Fame's new honourees include the spinning top, Masters of the Universe and Lite-Brite as this year's inductees.
The National Toy Hall of Fame's new honourees include an object dating to ancient times, a line of muscle-bound action figures and an iconic art set whose medium is colourful pegs. The hall on Thursday announced the top, Masters of the Universe and Lite-Brite as this year's inductees.
The Toy Hall of Fame inducts a new class of toys each year in a ceremony at The Strong museum in Rochester, where the hall is housed. "The top is one of the oldest toys and an integral part of many cultures, where it developed independently as a plaything," Chief Curator Christopher Bensch said in a news release. "With more than 5,000 years of history behind it, it's about time that the top spun its way into the National Toy Hall of Fame!"Hasbro's Lite-Brite has maintained its popularity for more than 50 years, after being introduced in 1966.
