You know those blue pens that are handy for marking your fabric?
Kind of like this one.
And they leave a blue mark? Because they are supposed to. Which is great because I marked it for a reason.
But I don’t always want to ‘wash’ what I have marked to remove it. And I don’t have a sink nearby in my basement.
Aqua Do-Doo to the Rescoooo! (max calls it do-doo and I see no reason to correct him).
Aqua Doodle (for those without young one’s and therefore no idea what I am talking about) is a kid activity thingie where you fill this ‘pen’ with water and the write on their special (read: pricey) surface and it changes color when wet and goes back to blank when it dries. Hours of entertainment. Or heartache when they try non do-doo pens…
but I digress.
This little toy is GREAT for removing the blue pen marks without washing the item you marked! I am so pleased with myself about this one – I really am. Never mind hours of entertainment for them, I now have minutes of sheer pleasure for me:)
(ps – I have seen these pens sold separately from the kid activity thingie at stores like target and wal-mart)
