Fortunately, I use this product called Amodex Ink and Stain remover...which works great on surfaces and fabrics and apparently also works great on skin. I was afraid to try alchohol on her and I used this product instead because it is non-toxic and it lifted the ink RIGHT OFF!! I don't know whats in it, but it is a mild soap and it works really quickly. I found it online, but its also available in some stores.

I used the magic eraser to remover the marks from the desk, but am at a loss for her clothes. By the way, the store brand of the Magic Eraser works really well! And to Nichole, I'm sorry but your story just made me laugh! I know it was frustrating for you, but it's a cute story that you can use against him when he's a teen!! Too bad he didn't draw the "hair" on your husband! That would've deffinately tought him a lesson! I'm not laughing about the sleeping husband though, mine does the same thing...

That's funny how they call out that exact soap to help rid your child's skin of the perm marker... nice marketing ploy for sure! So does Gerber own the Sharpie Corp.?
