Another Toy Recall
The evolving question is, "What do they make in China that's safe?"
Curious George is the latest to fall victim to the seemingly consciousless Chinese toy industry:
WASHINGTON - About 175,000 Curious George Plush Dolls were recalled Thursday, becoming the latest popular toy made in China found to be contaminated with dangerous levels of lead.
Manufactured by Marvel Toys, of New York, N.Y., the Curious George dolls contain excessive levels of lead in their surface paint, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.
Also mentioned in the article are some children's sunglasses sold at Dollar General afflicted with a similar lead problem.
On the bright side, lots of kids will be getting books for Christmas. Much better for them in so many ways...
