Plaything most of you duplicated (2-2)
I believe the answer is:
yo-yo
'plaything' is the definition.
(I know that yo-yo is a type of plaything)
I can't explain the remainder of the clue.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for yo-yo that I've seen before include "Ma perhaps" , "Toy consisting of a spool and string" , "Toy (with ups-and-downs!)" , "Go up and down many times" , "Toy consisting of a reel and string" .)
