Comments on: New Directive Aims to Make Toys Safer for Kids and Environment http://weheartworld.com/featured/new-directive-aims-to-make-toys-safer-for-kids-and-environment/ A green blog Thu, 11 Mar 2010 21:23:22 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.1 By: Tracy http://weheartworld.com/featured/new-directive-aims-to-make-toys-safer-for-kids-and-environment/#comment-1614 Tracy Tue, 24 Nov 2009 15:46:48 +0000 http://weheartworld.com/?p=440#comment-1614 I am glad to see that governments are holding companies accountable for the products they make. It is sad that the companies themselves do not care enough for children to do this on their own. With weight problems rising at an alarming rate it is also important that people look for toys that get their children off the couch out of the house and out to play. As parents it is our job to keep our kids healthy we do want toys that are made of safe products but also that keep our children active.

I did read somewhere else there may soon be a ban on selling used childrens toys because of all the recalled toys that flood the markets at eBay, flea markets, yard sales etc. What will be the kicker is how they will actually police this, eBay may be easier than the others by simply banning those categories in question. But how will they stop the yard sales, flea markets and craigslist sales without forming a new "Toy Police". Whatever measure they introduce will surely be a welcome addition, you cant put a price on our childrens safety. <abbr><em>Rick (The LPS Collector)s last blog post..<a href="http://www.buylittlestpetshop.com/blog/2009/02/series-1-post-card-collectible-pets/" rel="nofollow">Series 1 Post Card Collectible Pets</a></em></abbr> As aparent of a 5 year old I think it is a good idea to make toys less harmful to our children.
