A needle in a haystack
Melbourne toy manufacturer Moose recalled the Bindeez line of toys today. My first thought was "I should have bought that refill pack yesterday when I saw them, now I'll never get my hands on any".
Then I actually read the article.
So I had to explain to Master Seven that he couldn't get the toy he wanted for Christmas because it was toxic if swallowed (or exposed to the liquid too long).
His first reaction was "Well I won't swallow them", then he was upset and asked us why a toy would be poisonous to kids.
Good Question. Hopefully the company will find out the answer and find an alternative. Those things were great fun.
..and now I'm going to have to search the house and find all those tiny little beads.
In other news, Efficient won the Melbourne Cup and I won nothing. Again :)

It's a shame though, that such a supposedly kid-friendly version of this type of toy has gone so horribly wrong!
