HISTORY OF POP IT
The story of Pop It, began in the mid-1970s with an Israeli couple named Theo and Ora Coster, who invented more than 190 games, including the famous recognition game, Guess Who? They also started a company called Theora Design. When Ora's sister died of breast cancer, Ora dreamed of a chest game where you could push from one side and then the other. From there, they created a prototype of that vision and worked on it for many years until they sold it to Montreal-based gaming company FoxMind.
FoxMind manufactured the product in silicon and launched it in 2013, but it was not exactly a smash hit. When it was relaunched in 2019 under the name Pop it, it was a boom, it became a hit and is still the most popular children's toy today. If you are looking for such a toy, you can check the Cykapu website, there you will find a variety of pop it with all its different designs and shapes.
HOW POP IT WORKS
