The hula hoop rotated into American hearts in 1958. It became an immediate hit with Americans young and old with around 25 million hula hoops selling in the toy’s first four months of existence. Wham-O cofounders Richard Knerr and Arthur “Spud” Melin (who patented it) set out to market the plastic hoop after learning about Australian children having fun with wooden hoops in gym classes. Hula hoops are considered a 1950s fad, but unlike coonskin caps, soda shops, and sock hops, hula hoops stepped out of the limelight but never really faded away.

Hula hoops are easy to find in toy and dollar stores. Kids still use the hip-swiveling circle toy in gym classes and for playing fun hula hoop games in their backyards. There’s a reason hula hoops have stood the test of time. They are fun and give the user a pretty good core workout. The budget-friendly hula hoop is also an innovative toy with a lot of other uses, making it a handy thing to have a few of in the garage, especially when you’re trying to get kids to power down. Here are 10 cool hula hoop games to get children (and adults) up and playing.
