A friend of mine sent me this email and would like to alert you parents out there. Mattel recalls high lead toys. If you have bought any of those toys, return it and get your money back. Last time, I so wanted to get that Barney phone for my children, fortunately I didn’t.
Three toys affected are Barney Best Manners Phone, Sing ’N Play Alphabook and Giggle Gabbers. The toys were recall because of excessive lead found in the paint of the toys. We really have to be careful when buying toys from China. There is no way for us to tell if something like this happens.
