- A yo-yo is very easily made with two buttons and a piece of thread. First of all a person has to get two bug buttons and sew them together with a thread and needle. Then when he had this done he has to tie a big piece of thread between the two buttons. The loose end of this string he has rolls round his middle finger. When he moves his hand up and down the buttons run up and down the thread and this is called a yo-yo.
