Lots of Fisher Price/Matel Toys Recalled for Lead Paint!

[mbh06]

Okay a lot of toys have been recalled for lead based paint, it is really quick and easy to check. Mainly Sesame Street, Dora, & Diego toys. Wouldn't want any of our children to get hurt.

You'd think by now they'd know that you can't use lead paint on toys ...

My DD has EVERY Dora item there!! I know the big house was bought at Christmas and a lot of the little items were bought within the last few months. UGH!!!

Thanks for posting this. I wouldn't have known anything about it.

I just heard about this and appreciate not having to look up the sight. How happy am I that we aren't Dora obsessed here. Hopefully, Care Bears & Disney Princesses are safe.Does anyone else wonder WHY we continue to have a relationship with China? Seems like there is always something new that's really harmful that we let into the country from China. Pet food, fish, toys.

Lots of Elmo stuff which my son LOVES! Luckily he doesn't ahve any of that. Are they pulling these items from the stores? I hope so! His birthday is in November.

I hadn't heard about this either! Thanks for posting.

These toys were made in China. I don't think they have the concern about lead poisoning.

My sentiments exactly!
