Well, let me tell you, this dessert sand thing, it ain’t no good. You see them little ones, always puttin’ stuff in their mouths. That sand, it ain’t food. No sir! Not one bit. It’s all them little rocks and whatnot. Not somethin’ you should be eatin’.
My old eyes seen a lot, and I tell ya, that dessert sand, it’s trouble. Little Timmy down the road, he ate some once. Oh, he was a mess! Coughin’ and sputterin’. His mama, she was worried sick. Took him to the doctor, and he said it was a chokin’ hazard. Said that sand could get stuck in his little throat. Poor Timmy!
Now, I heard some folks sayin’ it’s just a little bit, won’t hurt nothin’. But I say, why risk it? You don’t want your little ones gettin’ sick. Even a teaspoon, that’s too much! That dessert sand, it don’t just come out easy. It stays in there, I reckon. Not like regular food that comes out the other end.
You gotta keep an eye on them little ones. Where they play, what they do. If they’re always puttin’ stuff in their mouths, you gotta watch ’em like a hawk. Keep that dessert sand away from ’em. Lock up anything that ain’t food. Don’t want them eatin’ things they shouldn’t.
- Keep that sand out of reach, I tell ya!
- Watch them little ones like a hawk!
- Don’t let ’em eat nothin’ that ain’t food!
- That sand, it’s no good for eatin’!
They say there’s a name for it, this eatin’ sand thing. “Pica,” or somethin’ like that. Sounds like a bird, “magpie” if I heard it right, and that is not normal. Means they wanna eat things that ain’t food. Like that dessert sand. It ain’t got no vitamins or nothin’ good in it. Just rocks and dirt.
And you know what else? That sand, it can have all sorts of nasty stuff in it. Germs and whatnot. You don’t want your little ones gettin’ sick from that, do ya? Some doctor said it ain’t that bad, but I still wouldn’t risk it. Better safe than sorry, I always say.
Eatin’ that dessert sand, it’s just plain bad. It can hurt their teeth, too. Grindin’ on them little rocks, that can’t be good. And it can mess up their insides. Give ’em a tummy ache, or worse. I seen it happen, and it ain’t pretty.
If your little one eats some of that sand, you better do somethin’. Don’t just wait and see. Get them some help, quick! It is important thing to do. That dessert sand is a big health problem, I am tellin’ ya.
Now, some folks might say I’m just an old worrywart. But I seen a lot in my days. And I know that eatin’ sand ain’t right. It’s just plain wrong. You wouldn’t eat it, would ya? So why let your little ones?
And that sand at the beach, don’t even get me started on that. Same as that dessert sand, all them little bits of rock and who knows what else. People say it’s temptin’ to eat it. Well, don’t! It ain’t food! Keep it away from your little ones.
And them sandboxes, where the little ones play. You gotta keep that sand clean. Change it out, I heard every couple of years. Or if somethin’ nasty gets in it, like, well, you know… Kids ain’t always clean, bless their hearts. Gotta keep that dessert sand clean for ’em.
You got kids, playing with the sand, you watch them good. That Kinetic sand, they say it is safe, but still. They make it so kids don’t eat that, but still. You never know, that dessert sand, it just ain’t right in little mouths. And if they eat it, what happens? That sand, it is no good, it can hurt them, for real.
Babies, they always put things in their mouths. And they see that sand, they might try to eat it. They do not know any better. That dessert sand, that is not safe, not for them little babies. You have to teach them, tell them “No, that is not for eating!”.
So, there you have it. My two cents on this whole dessert sand business. It ain’t good, I tell ya. Keep it away from the little ones. Keep ’em safe and healthy. That’s all that matters, ain’t it?
