Lead Testing Kits

About 18-20 years ago when we had the first round of Lead scare, I saw a testing kit for sale. I know someone out there knows where to buy them now. Can you tell me where to get one? IS IT MADE IN CHINA? I will tell you what I saw in the 99 cent store that reminded me of the need for one. They had some nice coffee mugs and I was going to make some 'Hot cocoa gift mugs' UNTIL I saw a sticker on a couple of them that said 'Warning, not made for food'. There were dozens of them and only a few had the warning sticker on them.

I have received a few mugs as gifts over the years and now wonder how safe they were/are to use? Some people are just now starting to realize the danger of lead poisoning (my daughter said someone told her this week that "Oh,that little bit won't hurt anyone") Her answer was "I'm not taken a chance with MY granddaughter! She is looking to buy a test kit to test all of the toys and furniture she has bought over the last 4 years.Thanks for your help.
