The Ball In The Wooden Cup
Tossing a stringed ball into a hand-held cup can be quite addictive, which is why this toy still hasn’t gotten old no matter how ancient it is. In 16th-century London, the cup and ball were both made out of wood, but derivatives of the childhood toy have expanded across culture for centuries. In Japan, the game is now called kendama, and is used with two cups instead of one.
