Nevermind, I found it, and to think I was the one that posted the question about toys in the first place.

This is called old age.

Thanks for the link. What do you fill these things with ?...

hehe Someone told me it is not old age but rather called "Craft disease".

I like that term better!!!

I heard you fill them with beads, but I am going to do some more research.

CRAFT = Cant Remember A F###*** Thing.


Sorry a bit crass, but gee it made us laugh at Ladies Lunch last week when we were talking about memory loss and some one mentioned this term...:lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol


re the hacky sacks, do you think rice might work?

I LOVE IT!!! That's not crass, that is fact!!!

I don't think rice would work, I think it has to be smaller than rice. It's just the way the ball feels.

I have been doing some research and it seems the filler of choice seems to be plastic pellets? Or something called poly pellets?

I will have to find out what those are.

One thing to remember KnicKnac, it's "HACKY SACK" not "hackisac" - no wonder you couldn't find anything!

Yup, it took me a few minutes to decipher what you were asking for. :lol

The poly pellets are usually found in the stuffing and foam section. They're used for homemade Beanie Babies and such. ;)

Fill 'em up with small plastic beads or something- using beans,dried peas or whatnot will bring weevles and worms and mites OH My!:eek
