Do your kids ever break toys? Yeah, right, mine don’t either. Ha! I used to try and glue cars and such back together with Elmer’s, my craft glue, Krazy Glue, etc. and it never worked. Finally I got smart and looked for plastic-to-plastic glue at Walmart or Target or wherever. What a difference! It takes a little more work: you have to coat both pieces, wait five minutes, stick them together, and then let them “cure” for 24 hours. But then the toy is back together, it’s sturdy, everyone is happy. And you’ve saved money. You’re not throwing away toys, or anything else, just because it’s a little broken.

I had no idea this stuff existed. Putting it on my Wal-Mart list right now!
Thank you for this information. I was wondering if this exists.
I should have mentioned, I don’t mean to advocate the “Loctite” brand in particular, you may not be able to find that one. Just look for the wording Plastic-to-Plastic. That’s the important part.
Oh I wish I had known about this years ago!
Thanks for the tip.
