DH and I bought the girls a Da Bird toy today for their birthday tomorrow. When I took it out and went to put the two ends of the wand part together, it wouldn't fit in and whatever is on the outside kept fraying into small strands. At first I thought it was some kind of plastic, but now I'm not sure.
The girls had caught sight of the feathers by then, so I just played with them with half the wand. That was when I noticed that thoes fraying ends were coming off. And now I keep finding them in my hand like tiny slivers! And they hurt!
I've tried tape to pull some out when I find them. I don't have any elmers glue at home and now I'm at my parents. I hope they have some, but my Mom isn't here for me to ask at the moment. The slivers are hard to see because they are clear.
Mostly I'm wondering if anyone else had that problem with it? We ended up using electrical tape to attach the two ends of the wand together and hold down those fraying parts.
On a good note, the girls both had an absolute BLAST with it! Noodles was so excited!
(Mods, if I put this in the wrong forumn, please move...)
