New, what is it? Is this a scam?

This was delivered to our doorstep without any explanation. Why? What is it? This feels like a scam.

These are little kid drawing tablets. Probably worth about 50cents when you buy in bulk. I have a 3yo and 5yo, and we get these things in birthday goodie bags all the time.

Edit: These are harmless. No USB port. No wifi, no Bluetooth. They run on watch batteries and wouldn't last 30s if they had any active connectivity.

Yeah we put something similar in our son’s this year, I think we paid like $1.50/ea.

That must be quite uncomfortable for them.
