YOU CAN BUY PENCILS THAT ARE . . . PRE-CHEWED???

Are your kids constantly chewing on their pencils? If so, you might want to think about buying pencils that are already PRE-CHEWED. Seriously. A British company called Concentrate Design has just released a new line of pencils which are designed to look like they've been chewed on. According to the company, the logic is that if a pencil looks like it's been in someone else's mouth . . . kids won't want to put it in their own mouths, and that will prevent them from developing the disgusting habit.

(--So what have we learned today? If your kid does something you don't like, all you have to do is . . . manipulate them. It's so simple!) (Ananova)

(--You can buy a pack of pre-chewed pencils for $2.25 here . . .)
