There have been a lot more recalls due to lead paint, including the Laugh N Learn Kitchen and Northern Tool "Big Red" Wagon.
Here's the list: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prerelnov07.html -------------------- |

Also, if anyone has Bindeez beads, they have been pulled off the shelves here in Australia.
I am not sure if they go by the same name in the US, but if they are eaten they have chemicals in them that if ingested, becomes the party drug Fantasy, which is liquid ecstacy. Why on earth would a childs toy need to contain ingredients like that? It's sickening, this particular type of drug is most commonly used to drug women so they can be raped. It shouldn't be in a children's toy, ever. -------------------- Nina, Mama to Emily Kate, Odessa Jean & Aysun Aleisha.

yep. Scary stuff. So far, we've been lucky and not had any of the recalled items. The girls have some "trendy" stuff but we try to focus on the learning and imagination type toys that we had as kids. Wooden blocks and toys (unpainted usually), regular fashion dolls like barbie, plastic animals, computer games and lots and lots of books. I have a feeling that the older classic toys and books will be big this year.
