| | Do Not. Under Any Circumstances. Buy This Product | | I will get it added to the database on the Mother Site, but in the meantime, do NOT succumb to the allure of the Crayola Chalk Stompers.
Especially with kids with asthma.
Picture two beanbags. Filled with chalk dust. With handles. Being used as cymbals. Over your asthmatic brother's head.
No, I don't know what the hell I was thinking either.  |

| | Re Do Not. Under Any Circumstances. Buy This Product | | Aside from the potential for sibling torture, what was the supposed intended commercial purpose of a "chalk stomper"? |

You are SUPPOSED to use them with the stencils, but they totally suck for that. We did find a fun use for them, though... you can put them on your hands and bear walk leaving "alien footprints" all over the driveway.
But of course, Bug had an asthma attack.  |

| | Re Do Not. Under Any Circumstances. Buy This Product | | what an amazingly poorly concived idea.
my lungs are tightening up just looking at the pictures. I'm asmatic, my kids are not. Poor dd can't wear all the cr*py perfume her friends do because it will make me stop breathing.

| | Re Do Not. Under Any Circumstances. Buy This Product | | Imagine playing Toss-Across (the beanbag tic tac toe game) with these chalk thingies. On the living room rug.
