We all had a favourite toy when we were kids. From dolls to cars, puzzles and blocks toys play a vital part in a child’s education and imagination. But there are some toys out there that are just plain weird and should not be allowed in any child’s playroom. Search the internet and you will find more than just a Chucky Doll. Here are some of the weirdest toys that have hit the shelves in the past 60 years.
Airborne Microbes Screaming Diseases
(The Fun Way to Spread Germs)
We can’t think of anything less appropriate in the health current but let’s quote the website. “Instead of infecting people around you with real germs and not having any fun at all, now you can spread them much further and have a few laughs as well.”
These squishy germs come in either a gross, snot-colored common cold or a brown and hairy E. Coli that can flung through the air at unsuspecting victims via a stretchy cord that also activates disgusting sound effects like a cough or sneeze from the common cold germ or severe flatulence from the E. Coli.
Er… no, thank you!

Two-Headed Teddy Bear
Cuddly, well yes… but! It looks like the makers of this creepy bear took the saying ‘Two heads are better than one” literally. Its baffling how the designer missed the association with co-joined twins. Maybe the factory had all these heads and then ran out of enough bodies so they decided to cut their losses.
Not surprising that it’s no longer for sale. Guess you’ll have to make your own.

Pee and Poo
They’re soft and somewhat cute but the associations are a little too much for us.
Can you imagine the response at the baby shower when the mum-to-be opened the wrapping and found these.

The Face Bank
We all want our children to learn good saving habits but the thought of giving them a creepy face that actually swallows coins is wrong on so many levels, even if it does come in various colours.
All we can think of is the panic that occurs when someone's toddler has swallowed the contents of mommy's wallet.

Titanic Inflatable Slide
No, no, no! How could anyone in their right mind think that this was an acceptable idea for a toy.

Poo Dough
Poo-Dough, which is exactly what it sounds like (although not made by Play-Doh), made the list of top 10 most dangerous toys for 2015. The dough, which comes in two different shades: standard brown, and yellow to add the appearance of corn chunks, was seen as dangerous because it contains wheat.
Fear of this product resulting in allergic reactions could only mean one thing ... children are out there making fake turds, and then eating them. Ugh!

Hatchimals Wow!
The original Hatchimals toys hit stores in 2016 and almost immediately reached Cabbage Patch-levels of popularity. The following year, Hatchimals WOW came out and it garnered a lot of media attention, as expected, but a good portion of it was for reasons the toy's creators probably didn't anticipate.
Hatchimals Wow, in various stages of the hatching process, bears a striking resemblance to a certain male appendage. Maybe that's the "wow" part?
The cute, fuzzy beast that springs forth from this new version of Hatchimals grows its full length of 32" inches by being stroked, has a ridged neck, and ... you know what, let’s stop this now.

Fugglers
An already ugly doll with the addition of realistic-looking human teeth? In some parts of the world that's not a toy, that's called voodoo. Thankfully Fugglers, which started popping up in 2010, can be played with without the fear of summoning the ghost of your dead ancestors into your home. We hope.

The Fart Launcher
Called a "stink bomb for this century," the Fart Launcher 3000 can blast farts up to 10 feet away and boasts creating realistic smells.
According to the launcher's full description, it comes with a scent canister containing over 100 rounds of "farts" that smell real but are made of 100% plant-based materials, which means that this could potentially be a great gift for any vegans in your life. Of course you could always make your own and save the purchase price.

Poopeez
Poopeez is both an animated web series, as well as a line of toys. First introduced in 2017, they're a super affordable $4 and each rubbery, squishy bodily function comes in its own tiny roll of toilet paper. You can also get a Poopeez Launcher Playset that allows you to load, flush, and then launch your little poops. Seems reasonable.

Chlamydia
A good way to avoid a potentially awkward conversation about STDs is to bring a stuffed version of whatever you're referencing into the mix.
GIANT Microbes makes stuffed versions of all the big ones: gonorrhea, herpes, HPV, and the cutest of them all ... chlamydia. Are you kidding me?
