More leaded toys and a recall

It's getting harder to keep lead away from children when most toys are now made in China - here is another Mattel recall

The latest recall involves three Fisher-Price toy models and eight Barbie brand playsets. No Barbie dolls were included.

Mattel instructs people to go to its Web site (click HERE) to establish whether they own an affected toy. After they fill out a form and send back the affected parts, Mattel will send them replacement and bonus parts.

My four-year-old Lily loves Sesame Street and it was heartbreaking to toss them out. You'll be interested to know a few moms are really speaking out and suing Mattel in a class action suit. I found a few interesting links on this case:
