The issue of the quality of products made in China and in this case toys, itches and spreads. A few days ago Velsid had told us the news of the withdrawal of more than one million Fisher Price brand toys due to possible dangers to children's health. The paint used to paint these toys has high amounts of lead and this carries risks to the health of children.
Now, after less than two weeks, the company Mattel one of the great giants of the world of toys, which also markets the Fisher Price line, announces that it will withdraw millions of products made in China from the market, including other toy lines of different brands.
The number of affected toys in the United States is over 9 million and at the world market level the figure is 18.2 million.
Again, these are toys with paints with a high level of lead and some toys that have very small magnets that can be detached, which although according to what was published in the news have not caused any accident, they will be removed as a precaution.
Among the toys affected by the measure are the Barbie doll scooper to collect the excrements of his dog Tanner, the "Polly Pocket" dolls, one of Batman's figures and one of the cars of the children's movie "Cars".
Also according to the news after the announcement of Fisher Price, the Chinese government banned the manufacturer of the toys in question continue to export their products and apparently one of the owners of the company committed suicide.
The truth is that the news is very alarming, to us parents with security when buying a toy many questions will come to mind.
Hopefully this will serve so that in the future for the good of all, the care and quality standards that all products that will be used by children should have are maximized and that the health of millions of children is not put at risk, just to get a greater economic benefit.
