This small bottle has six little "pills" in it that expand into small washcloths when soaked with water. I can think of so many uses for this and the size is so convenient! I just ordered a bunch as stocking stuffers. They can be ordered HERE.
I know Christmas is over eight months away, but I shop year round as I find cool stuff. And these definitely qualify.

These are banned in Australia because of the risk of kids swallowing the pill then choking as they expand

Wow. I had no knowledge of that. Like many things (detergent pods, medicines, knives, cleaning supplies, and more), they should be kept away from children. I still think it's a product with excellent uses for adults, however.

I've seen them here at the dollar store, but they aren't pills, they are large shapes like stars or squares. couldn't really swallow them.

I think it's a great stocking stuffer. There are no kids around here to worry about, so I've bookmarked the page. Thanks for sharing!

I have those, but somehow I've never used them. They are much smaller than the ones mentioned from the dollar store.

Just remember not to have them around the pets, either.

Is it crazy that I want these just for the little glass jar they come in?

These are banned in Australia because of the risk of kids swallowing the pill then choking as they expand Is that a recent thing? Because I saw them in the shops a few months ago, just before Christmas. I nearly bought some (my kids have been given them before as stocking fillers) but I didn't bother because once they've expanded, they are just a normal size washcloth and I have more than enough of those.

I have bought something like that before for a stocking stuffer for my son. He loves Container Store and basic items to help keep life clean and orderly. Towels
