Shrinky Dinks were invented in 1973 by two housewives of Brookfield, Wisconsin, as a Cub Scout project with their sons. The whole idea was to color them and then put them in the oven for 3 minutes. We had Shrinky Dinks Growing up, but I never understood them. Why do you want to make something smaller. I always wanted something bigger. Seem sort of lame to me. Shouldn't mom be using that cooking sheet to make cookies and help increase the childhood obesity problem. Still, this does bring back memories. Thanks Hasbro. Did you know the Band Sugar Ray was going to call themselves Shirky Dinks, but didn't want to be sued.
