Toys ‘R’ Us Recalls 27,000 Crayon and Paint Sets Due to Lead

NEW YORK — Toys “R” Us has recalled 27,000 crayon and paint sets made in China because the packaging of the wooden box contains lead, as does some of the watercolor paint within, company and government officials said Thursday.
No injuries have been reported from the use of the Imaginarium Wooden Coloring Cases, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
I do hope that all of the parents out there are really taking this seriously and looking into purchasing more of their toys from US toymakers.
The toy recalls are becoming so common now that don’t even seem to be getting major headlines. See my screen shot below of where I found this article on Fox News. To be fair, I didn’t even find the article on the main page of CNN or MSNBC.
