Romper Stompers
Before there was such a thing as elliptical trainers, we kids use to get our exercise walking around the yard in Romper Stompers. Remember these? Big plastic yellow cups that were turned upside down and had rope attached? You would put your feet on top of them and use the rope to help you walk around the town!
Here is a pic of the new, redesigned ones. They are not nearly as tall as the old ones.

We had one official pair at our house and then my resourceful mom made additional pairs out of tall metal juice cans and rope. We had a blast!
