Watch Out For Vinyl Bibs From China

I just read in the newspaper that some vinyl bibs from Toys R Us were being recalled because some of them had too much lead. Made in China. It's possible that some of the bibs ended up at other stores under different labels. Lead can lead to all sorts of permanent problems for children. Please call the store or go on the internet for details.

Alot of your household items come from China, if you were go thru your home to look and see. If you go to Dollar stores, many of those items do, too. Especially if you order from such places as "Oriental Trading Co.", etc. Next time you go shopping, start checking those tags, stickers, package info, as to where the items were made. It's almost too late to start "fixing" America as too many companies have taken their businesses to overseas for cheaper labor, but if we ALL start doing this practice maybe just maybe we can make these companies move back to the U.S.A.!!
