OMG how many of us grew up with that chia pet jingle? I swear they still have the same commercials.. So my middle son Scott has wanted one for a while.. I set out to buy him one.. a Donkey one...Well I don't know about you but I find 19.99 a bit much for a terracotta head you put sprout seeds on.. call me old fashioned but really that could buy my some lovely scrap paper LOL Here is the link if you can't remember what they are..
