In the latest round of toy recalls is Aquadots. This was a highly coveted item for my daughter and I purchased it a few weeks ago to make sure we had it before the huge holiday rush.
Now it is going back to the store and I will have to break the news that this is not an option.
I am thinking the fact that it turns into the equivalent drug reaction of a date rpe drug is not a good thing for a 5 year old.
What I would really like to know is how do these things happen? And what are we doing about it?

so sad.... really.... seems everything is made in China these days. How did you learn about the recall?
i never heard of these things so i had not a clue when i saw it on the news...what are they?
Ugh. Maggie has been asking for these!!
from what I heard on the news this afternoon, the makers are going to re-coat all of the "dots" with a foul-tasting substance so kids won't *want* to put them in their mouths.
Pretty soon there won't be ANYTHING to play with. Kids will have to resort to ::gasp:: using their imaginations & playing with sharp sticks and riding their bikes like we did.
I can't believe all of these recent toy recalls! Makes me scared to buy anything for the kids.
BTW, I appreciate you always reading and leaving comments on my blog. I was going to send you an e-mail, but I don't have your address anymore. Please send me an e-mail to amy_j_lively@yahoo.com sometime. Take care!
