The pinwheel is the design from my childhood that impressed me a lot. It’s hard to think of it like this in modern times because the idea and design of the pinwheel is so simple, but at the same time, it’s a lot of fun.
Technically, the toy windmill is an artificial object which utilizes physics. It implies the wind force as we know. As a child, I did not know this much about physics. Instead, all that interested me was the design and novelty of it. In addition, I believe that children who were born in the 80s might all experience the magic of this toy pinwheel because of several reasons. First, it is very easy to find the materials to make a toy pinwheel. You may use any kind of paper as well. For me, I remember that glossy magazine pages were my favorite. The process of making the stick by rolling the paper is very fun too. Finally, in addition to the paper, you just need a pin for finishing the pinwheel.
Another great thing about this toy is that it is simple to make, especially for children. Not much technical skill is required, and the construction process is quick. After a couple of easy steps of cutting and pinning, it’s done.
Overall, I think the design of the toy pinwheel is very great. Although, it is hard to make a comparison between this old fashion toy with what children are playing today, the idea and the concept of this design brings impact to the society. It has been brought children a lot of happiness in their childhood. Personally, I love the design just because it’s simple and fun.
