As we’re getting ready to move, we’ve gotten to the point where we’re packing up most of the kids’ toys. That got us wondering: what with all of the recalls that have been issued lately because of lead paint and all (why on earth isn’t China under a trade embargo yet?), are any of the toys in our house unsafe? I mean, Joshua seems like he’s half-puppy; he’s always chewing on something.
So while looking around, I got a bit overwhelmed by the huge lists of recalls. Thankfully, it looks like we’re okay, but I was wondering if there might be an easier way to keep track of new notices.
Well, there is. Just plug the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission’s child products RSS Feed into your feed reader of choice (Google Reader, Feedblitz, Sage, etc.) and you’ll get updates as other items are recalled! (The CPSC provides a number of other recall feeds, too.)
I hope you find that as helpful as I do. 
We bought our son some Aquadots for Christmas. Yeah…
What’s really gonna stink is if Santa has to take all the presents back come February…
Jibblie…
I use the US Consumer product safety feed on my site to keep my readers up to date on the newest recalls and I have to say it’s the best feed i’ve found so far to keep on top of all of these recalls.
