I gave these out at a carnival as prizes for the games. Apparently kids "these days" don't know to put water in them. I saw kids blowing in them once, declaring them "broken", and tossing them down! So I had to demonstrate what they do when you add water. There are no instructions with them, so be sure you mention that. I think they're pretty fun- a good memory of my childhood. Mine came with an even number of all 4 colors.

Our son found a bird whistle he liked at a small local toy store. It was $5, I wasn't willing to shell out five dollars for one whistle! So, we bought these for his 4th birthday as favors and I was excited to see his reaction to giving them out to his friends. Well, thank goodness we tried them out first! I knew they needed water, so that was no problem, although I began to question it as soon as I started blowing on one because no sound (other than the sound of wind going out the many holes) came out. So, I dumped out the water, sure enough, still nothing!

It's such a simple idea, I don't understand why they cannot get the design right to make a sound, The plastic is terrible and could be easily squished in my 2 year old's little hand. Although, I don't know if he is going to get his little hands on one, because I am not sure that I want a bunch of kids complaining about how their whistle is broken.

I think next week we will plan a trip to the small independently owned toy store and I'll break down and get the little guy the five dollar whistle, since I will be (hopefully) returning these to the seller. We will see how that goes!

1.0 out of 5 stars DOES NOT WORK--NO MATTER HOW MUCH WATER, November 5, 2011

I tried my luck, based on the 4 and 5 star reviews. But the 1 stars had it. This absolutely does not work, no matter how much water, how hard or how lightly you blow. They just do not work. I hope I can get other party favors in time. What a big fat waste of money and plus it got my hopes up. The people who posted the 4 and 5 star reviews are simply lying or else their product was VERY different from what was mailed to me.
