We're calling it: These are the most terrifying kids toys in the world.

Whatever happened to the good ol’ yoyo? Or the slinky? Can’t we just give kids some wooden blocks or an etch-a-sketch?

WHY HAVE TOYS TURNED SO RIDICULOUSLY TERRIFYING?

There’s no denying it. These pictures from Distractify make it official:

Um… Congratulations?

 

It’s important for toys to be aspirational.

My mum gave me some of those STD/Disease toys as a joke earlier this year, I am 19 and in my first year of biology at uni. She gave me Herpes, the Pox, Malaria, Salmonella and Gonorrhea. And my older brother has a few others like an egg cell and a stem cell. They are quite educational with little tags that tell you about the disease and you can sort of grasp how small these are. I don't know how many there are but I want them all, they are super nerdy and cute :)

While these toys are ridiculous, I'm not sure that they will be haunting my dreams anytime soon. Except maybe the bladed baby furniture, waking up in one of those would definitely be a nightmare. How about some nice educational toys... http://www.groovycooltoys.c...
