Stained Hands

I don't know about you, but when I see something is for kids to use, I automatically assume it will be washable.  It should be, in my opinion! 

I knew I was going to have several other kids at my house one day, so I was trying to plan some fun activities for the kids.  One of the activities involved putting ink on their hands, so I went to the store and bought some ink pads that said "for kid use."  The kids start to use them and they create wonderful works of art with their inked up hands.  Then, I go to wash their hands and the stuff is not coming off!  I go look at the ink pads and in fine print it says "permanent ink."  I was thinking, "Their parents are going to kill me!" 







The parents didn't kill me and eventually the ink came off (after many, many washings).  Just, I am still puzzled by the fact that a company would make an ink pad for children to use and it would permanent ink.
