'Pecker party': I accidentally bought my four-year-old an X-rated toy

"I thought it was just a cute rubber ducky..." the woman's hilarious post begins. 

Wandering a charity shop is always an adventure. You just never know what gadget or knick-knack you're going to find. 

But one mum got a bigger surprise than she expected during her last visit to her local op shop. 

She innocently bought her four-year-old a toy she thought was a rubber ducky (it was picked up from the children's section) but it was actually something much more X-rated...

The Rainbow Pecker Party Confetti Gun

At first glance, the supposed children's toy looks like a rubber ducky, but it turns out it was actually a penis confetti gun.

Sharing her experience to the Family Lowdown Tips and Ideas Facebook page, the mum, Amber, explained that she knabbed the bargain buy for less than $2 for her daughter.

But when she got home, she read the packaging again and the toy was called 'The Rainbow Pecker Party Confetti Gun' and released penis-shaped confetti all over the floor. She quickly realised her mistake. 

"I am crying!🤣" she began the post. "Just a piece of advice to all parents out there. I bought this from the charity shop for my daughter as it was in the child’s section. (Didn’t think pecker party meant actual mini peckers!)

"I got it out of the packet and thought it looks a bit like a you-know-what. I then fired the confetti all over, and to my horror yes, thousands of mini confetti penises all over my house 🤣.

"Luckily she's young enough to just think they were shapes!"

"You could pass it off as Micky Mouse?"

The comment section was filled with mums getting in on the joke and others offering up some helpful suggestions.

"Hahaha, imagine if you’d used it on the last day of primary school in the playground, 🎉😂" one mum wrote.

"You could pass it off as Mickley Mouse!? 😂 Thank you for this post, you've made my day!" another said.

Then this person pointed out: "Those penises could pass off as bubble-letter 'Ys'. Perfect for someone called Yvonne... or Yvette."

And then someone else shared their similarly hilarious shopping fail: "I did that with pasta once from a dollar shop. Little penis pasta. I've yet to cook it. Can't bare to watch my kids eating it."
