Healthytoys.org is an online resource built by the Ecology Center to help educate parents, holiday shoppers, to identify non-toxic toys that might show up on their Christmas list.
In other words - no more bum toys that can be blamed on Santa, Jo-Ann Stores, Marvel , Mattel, Fischer Price or Dollar Stores.
Jo-Ann Stores recalled over 100,000 children's toy gardening tools in October.
Two different companies recalled 760,000 toy cars and action figures sold at Dollar Stores in November
Marvel Toys recalled 175,000 Curious George plush dolls.
Mattel recalled 675,000 Barbie dolls.
Fischer price recalled one million Chinese-made Dora the Explorer and Sesame Street Character toys.
Legal responsibility for toy safety may belong to the toy sellers in the United States but ultimate safety for kids belongs to the parents. That's you and me.
Healthytoys.org might be the online tool parents need to check up on Santa and his factories.
