WFMW: Safe Toy Check
Wednesday, December 12, 2007
We are doing our darndest to keep toys Made in China out of the house now, especially since even the big brand names are contaminated with lead paint.
We've already thrown away two trashbags full of toys that were questionable (or annoyed Mom. Shh. Don't tell my kids).
HealthyToys.org is a helpful website in the battle! They test toys for lead, arsenic, PVC/Chlorine, and other chemicals. If they haven't tested the toy you are worried about, you can submit a request. They have a searchable database by brand name or toy type - and they tell you the GOOD toys as well as the worst.
Quality lab test results, available to parents online for free, Works for Me! For more tips visit Shannon at Rocks in My Dryer!
