Another trick for kids is to give them a yo-yo with a flexible fiberglass tape 
instead of steel.  My wife carries one in her purse.  It's the kind she uses 
for sewing.  The kids don't seem to care that they always need two hands to use 
it.  They are used to seeing Gramma use it to measure furniture or items in the 
hardware store.
