Trompo (Top) - A favorite Chilean Toy
One of Chile's most popular toys are called Trompos or Tops (in English). Many students in the country make their own trompos by hand. They take a thick stick of wood, a knife, and a piece of rope. When I visited Temuco, a city in the country, some children taught me how to make them by hand. I even caught them playing with the trompo on video. Check out the video here:
