A spinning toy assembly includes a pair of cords each coupled between a pair of rings. The pair of rings is gripped by a user. A plate is positioned on each of the pair of cords. The plate is spun by the user so the pair of cords are twisted around each other. The pair of cords transfers a twisting inertia into the plate so the plate is rapidly spun. A processor is coupled to the plate. A light emitter is coupled to the plate and the processor. A speaker is coupled to the plate and the processor. The speaker and the light emitter is each actuated the plate is spun. A sensor is coupled to the plate and the processor. The sensor detects a rotation of the plate. The sensor actuates the processor when the plate is spun on the pair of strings.
