I made a huge mistake buying this toy for my kids it created a messy nightmare

She’s not messing around.Emily Skye, an Australian fitness trainer and model, is warning parents against buying the toys that she regrets having given to her children.

The mother-of-two posted a video on TikTok to share what products should be skipped on children’s wishlists this holiday season.“I made a huge mistake,” she said in the clip.Skye explained that she bought her children sticky dinosaur toys that can be put on your finger and flicked through the air.

However, while the rubbery novelties have led to some fun playtime for her kids, it’s caused a clean-up nightmare for their mother.“They’re now stuck on my ceiling and I can’t — for the life of me — get them down,” Skye complained, noting that she doesn’t have a ladder tall enough to reach them.

She then panned the camera to show several small dinosaur toys clinging to her home’s high, white ceiling.A few eventually fell off — but not without leaving their mark.

Each toy left behind a greasy stain on the house that Skye won’t be able to wipe away easily.Eventually, Skye’s handy husband stepped in and made a makeshift device to clear the toys from the ceiling.

And Skye isn’t the first person to be fooled by the seemingly innocuous toys.“My kids got lizard ones in a party bag and the color transferred — so we ended up with colored lizard shapes on our ceiling,” someone commented on her video.

“I have these on my roof too,” another confessed.“They leave sticky marks.”Others even claimed that similar products removed the paint from their walls or stayed clinging on for several years.

But Skye’s decision to buy the sticky animal toys is nothing compared to Mattel’s mistake of accidentally printing a URL to a porn purveyor on the boxes of their “Wicked” doll collection.Of course, there was a benefit for the smut site, which saw a big boost in visitor traffic in the wake of the otherwise un-“Popular” mix-up....
