Kids react to toys! This episode: Skip-It!
0:11
(Finebros) For this one, you are not reacting to a video.
0:13
Oh god.
0:14
Oh no.
0:15
(Finebros) You're reacting to this.
0:18
What is it?
0:19
I have no idea what it is.
0:20
Looks like a bubble maker.
0:23
Is it one of those things that you throw in the bottom of the pool and
then you go pick it up?
0:27
1:00
You put it on your foot and try to jump over this ball.
1:03
(Finebros) And why do you know what that is?
1:04
They had them at my school for a while.
1:06
Because my sister has one of these.
1:08
When I was little, my mom got me one.
1:10
My friend, Gabe, used to have one, but then he gave it away.
1:14
(Finebros) So that toy is actually something that was around
1:17
- when we were kids. - Oh, so you keep this for a long time?
1:20
I didn't know it was that old.
1:21
How do you like pink?
1:24
- Come on! - (Finebros) We have a sister.
1:27
Easy enough.
1:28
That explains this, 'cause this doesn't look like the ones I saw on TV.
1:31
They made them newer and they light up.
1:34
- (Finebros) It was called a Skip-It. - What the heck is a Skip-It?
1:36
Show me what you use it for.
1:38
(Finebros) We actually have a commercial from our childhood advertising the Skip-It. - Oh no.
1:43
Terrible '90s advertising with their WOW!
1:46
Is it that whole thing?
1:47
Hey now, kids, come gather 'round.
1:49
- See what's-- - Oh, it's kind of like jump rope!
1:52
- Skip-It, Skip-It-- - Look at the clothes.
1:56
Skip-It, Skip-It...
1:58
A-skippin', and a-screaming, and a bop shoo bop.
2:00
But the very best thing of all,- there's a counter on this ball-- - Oh
my god. It has a counter.
2:05
Where's...it has the counter!
2:07
You could jump a whole lot more!
2:09
This is horrible.
2:10
Skip-It, Skip-It. Come on, everybody!
2:12
- Skip-It! - Come on, everybody! Let's Skip-It!
2:15
- From Tiger Toys! - That was funny.
2:17
Is Tiger Toys even around anymore?
2:19
Full House.
2:20
That's what the song sounds like.
2:22
Hey, kids! Come buy this! Go tell your parents right now!
2:27
(Finebros) If you saw that commercial on TV, would you be asking
your parents to get you one of these?
2:31
No.
2:32
No.
2:33
No. It looked fun, it's just I don't think I'll ever get good at it.
2:36
Yes.
2:37
Yes.
2:38
Just to do that commercial. It was really funny, and it made me
want to get it.
2:43
The song's catchy, and the people that were doing it
2:47
made it look fun.
2:48
Maybe. I don't know.
2:50
(Finebros) Why...is not the commercial that-2:52
Because there was no boys in the commercial.
2:54
(Finebros) Do you want to try the Skip-It?
2:55
3:20
- There's a counter on this ball-- - How do you even start this thing?
3:23
A little too high.
3:27
Oh, geeze.
3:28
Okay...
3:29
Ow! Okay, I'm done.
3:32
(laughing) How do you even do it?
3:33
I just cannot do it!
3:35
(groaning)
3:40
- Try to beat your very best score. - Oh, Jesus! I got it.
3:43
Oh god. Oh.
3:46
Christ on a bike, that was hard.
3:47
Ugh! One, two, three, four...
3:52
4:17
(singing) Skip it, skip it. Skipping, skip, skip it.
4:22
Skip it, skip it, skip it, skip it, skip.
4:27
- (Finebros) So was that difficult? - No.
4:29
'Cause I've done it before.
4:31
Yes.
4:31
Extremely difficult!
4:33
This is kinda heavy.
4:35
You should at least have some teacher to help you a bit.
4:37
Like instructions. I don't even have instructions!
4:40
You look at this and you go, "Yeah, looks easy."
4:43
It's not!
4:44
It's not Skip It, it's Trip It!
4:45
A hula hoop!
5:13
Pogo stick?
5:13
I do a lot of jump rope.
5:14
I have a jump rope.
5:16
Jump roping.
5:17
(Finebros) What would you say is the toys you play with most?
5:19
iPads, computers, X-Boxes.
5:22
My phone...
5:25
A jump rope, a basketball.
5:27
I watch my cousin play Minecraft a lot.
5:29
I'm either on roller blades or a scooter.
5:33
Or I'm inside playing games.
5:36
I had this one t-ball thing. You'd hit it,and then it'd just kinda come
back to you.
5:40
But now...just technology and stuff.
5:43
(Finebros) When kids are playing today, would you say it's more
with toys
5:46
like Skip-It, or devices like iPhones and iPads?
5:49
Well, I think it's right in the middle. It depends on the kid.
5:52
I liked to play outside, but at the same time I also liked
5:54
to be on the computer a lot.
5:56
Most of time time, it's just iPads and stuff.
5:58
I know a three year old who knew how to use an iPad before he
knew how to ride a bike.
6:04
They'll ask you, "How was your summer? Well, what did you do?"
6:07
They'll usually be like, "Oh yeah, I played Minecraft.
6:09
We played Flappy Bird a lot."
6:11
Then I'm like, "Same here."
6:13
It's all about the iPhones and the iPad.
6:17
It's not really about this anymore, which is kind of sad.
6:21
'Cause now kids aren't really getting that much exercise.
6:24
Back in the '80s, it was a workout to have a toy.
6:28
And now technology has made everything easy.
6:31
(Finebros) And finally, now that you've played with it, do you want a
Skip -It of your own? - Mmm, no.
6:35
Yes.
6:36
Yes.
6:36
Yes!
6:37
Yes.
6:38
Yeah. Sure.
6:39
Not really. It's difficult!
6:42
Actually, yeah. I'm going to Target later.
6:44
I'm gonna go get one.
6:45
I think I would. In this color.
6:47
Yes. If it comes in yellow.
6:49
I would enjoy having one. Can I take this one?
6:53
- (Finebros) No. - Okay.
6:54
