This problem has also been traced to the brand name "Aqua Beads" - which I did see in Toys R Us last night.
With so many "made in China" problems this year, we are trying to avoid all products from there this Christmas.

A 19-month-old boy was in a Queensland hospital after ingesting a toy that was yesterday banned interstate.
Bindeez have been found to contain a chemical that converts into the toxic illegal drug GHB, also known as fantasy, when ingested.

The truth is, of course, that the curtness of the Ten Commandments is an evidence, not of the gloom and narrowness of a religion, but, on the contrary, of its liberality and humanity. It is shorter to state the things forbidden than the things permitted: precisely because most things are permitted, and only a few things are forbidden." - GK Chesterton
