Lord that boy of mine has been asking for aqua dots for a year now. I’m so tired of it. Maybe I’ll break down and get him it for Christmas. I just don’t think he’ll like it as much as he thinks (I know him). Plus it seems like a lot of extra stuff would end up having to be bought for it. I’m on the fence.
Julie

Hey Jennifer. Mine have been asking for them too. My daughter went to a party where this was one of the activities. I can’t imagine how much that cost.
She came home with a really cute dog. They are pricey and yep, it’s one of those toys that you keep having to buy stuff for. I haven’t given in yet, but we’ll see…..

Hi Julie, Aqua Dots have been recalled due to a serious risk. They turn into GHB when ingested.

Thanks Maricar — now I have a better reason not to get them. I may still have gotten them too and missed the recall so again thanks :)

Oh my goodness! Thanks Maricar. My kids have been begging for these. We have some my daughter made laying around somewhere. I need to find them asap. Thanks for the heads up. I’ll be sure and do a post about it today.
Hey Jennifer! :) Boy am I glad we didn’t buy these.
