Suppose you have a home office, and suppose you have a stapler on your desk in your home office. Now suppose there are small kid(s) around who want to play "office" just like you do, but you are worried a real stapler might be too dangerous for them to use.
Your solution? Presenting, Staple Me Elmo!
This wonderfully safe new product can fasten several sheets of paper together using a staple-free stapling process. This compact device comes concealed in the hand of every kid's favourite little monster, Elmo. The child simply places the corner of the pages he or she wants "stapled" together into Elmo's palm and shouts "Staple Me Elmo!" as they whack down on Elmo's hand. Viola! The pages are magically fastened together without any wire whatsoever.
Staple Me Elmo is clean, safe, and easy to use, and it leaves the paper fully shreddable and biodegradable! No rough metal edges to tear delicate skin or snag clothing! Nothing to rust!
Order yours today!
(Might have fit into Toy:Doll category but I figured the stapler part was the unique feature)

Been around for many years. We'd need to find a red one for Elmo, though. [Canuck, Mar 26 2009]

Are you worried about the staples themselves, or about the form factor of a normal stapler, eg. the danger of pinching? If it is about the latter, there are many staplers that look just like the staple-free-staplers in the link, and thusly have no pinching parts. |

Damn. I was expecting a masochistic Elmo doll which encourages people, children or otherwise, to mutilate it with a stapler. |
|
| |
I keep think of another idea: Staple Me Ear Mo! |
|
| |
Something about whacking Elmo appeals to me.
I'd...oopps I mean my kid would break it in a
minute. |

Definitely not alone. |

You would have to be very careful what exactly can and cannot be stapled by such a thing if it is going to be sold to children. I believe the staple-free effect is acheived by blades so a child trying to use it to staple a younger sibling would still be dangerous. |

This exists, except that it's not Elmo, it's other cute toy shapes. See link. (And what Spacecoyote said. You impale it with a merciless hail of sharpend steel spikes, it ... giggles.) |
