35 - Who Would Feed Lead Paint to a Baby!?

[aaahashleyyy]

Thank you so much for making this video! I bought lo some of these from a yard sale and we do have the recalled blue block!

[lilblondehooker]

*Mom I want the block!!* hehe..

I can't believe that these toys even make it into the US. We need to be making our own toys!

[delicatepuzzle]

Ok so a few things ... I'm really upset that we do NOT have a Trader JOes in Orlando ... lets just say ... In the state of FL, Next darn I wish I lived near you ... I need awesome friends like you! Hannah is sooo precious!!

[thebabymuse]

also - - what should people do with the contaminated block? just throw it in the trash? or is there a specific way of disposing of it?

[thebabymuse]

wow. ...just wow. what a careless person. so so glad that you were fortunate enough to come across this great info.

[nell2884]

WOW who knew! I knew tons of people who have had these blocks as well!

2 months later i went back to do her bloodwork and she was back to normal im pretty sure this was the cause becarefull when u buy stuff made in another country

[donnela83]

When my daughter was 2 i went to a store they were selling alot of producs made in china i went there with my 2 daughters I ended up buying coloring books and crayons for my oldest my 2 year old at the time Chew on those crayons week later i went to the doctor to her chekup she had bloodwork done they came back with high lvls of lead on her blood just her my older daughter was fine i knew were those crayons i trew everything away

[liza602]

Hannah is sooooo cute lol give her a big hug for me =)

[burbujajg]

healthytoys. org is my goto site for checking out my toys.

[Vee0705]

Oh my gosh I am so glad I watched this! The infant class in my child care has these .... I will be checking for a turtle tomorrow morning!!

[NaturallyThriftyMom]

I just went to my local othermothers store and found those blocks for sale! I let the girl working there know and she pulled them. I also called them back later with the recall codes so she could see if it was the one with the bad paint. Thanks for passing this on!

[scrappinmama268]

you can go to cpsc.gov (won't let me paste the full link) and sign up to get e-mails when things are recalled, it's awesome tool to keep up on recalls!

[ichigo8504]

Oh, you should do a vlog on washing the cloth diapers(everyone has their own way of doing it) and Hannah's closet.

[ichigo8504]

The three "dislikes" were probably made by the "consigner" and two other people who probably do the same thing--sale toys that have been recalled, just to make a buck.

[crimsonkurls]

Ok.That kind of stuff scares the hell out of me.I can't believe that woman knowingly sold a recalled item.VERY glad someone pointed that out.I love Baby Einstein stuff as well.I think it is pretty rare for them to be involved in recalls.

[marmar31484]

isnt itnincredible what things kida get exposues to! im a licenses lead inspectir in the state of nj and i usef to do lead inspections all the time. and if a house was considered lead free in paint they water wad tested as well as spil. if those two were alsp negative then we went to toys! any questions i can tell you guts resources and youll be totally shockec that over a million kifs per year still get lead poinsoning in the us!

[jollyjess6]

We use the same type of pouch foods for meal time when we are out and about. I didn't know that TJ's has them too. Good to know. Wow, thanks for the heads up and reminder to check out the recalls.

[leeannnneeh]

I cannot believe that person kept that block!!! It makes you wonder if she let her kid play with it too and just wanted an extra block... Wow... Very scary.

[MyBabyZander131]

Thank you for informing everyone Carla! So glad someone let you know about the recall. The people who disliked this video can suck a turtle ;) lol

[thebubblelush]

@MyBabyZander131 lol - Suck a turtle. Hilarious. :)

[AmyLizz]

Oh my gosh! I'm pretty sure our friends have those blocks, WITH the turtle for their 11 month old. I am sending an email right now! Thank you Carla for this important message! I am also going to check for recalls on all of Abbey's consignment store/thrift store toys from now on.

[hailbop87]

this is why i don't buy ANYTHING used. Scares the crap outta me! IF i buy used clothing it has to be never been worn with tags still on. No judgment to people who buy consignment tho, but its just not for me :)

[BooBear6607]

I absolutely cannot believe that someone KNOWINGLY sold those blocks. I am very confused as to why they would not have just trashed it. I am also very glad that someone knew and caught this on your video and that you were informed before Miss Hannah got her hands on it. Good Job for calling and reporting this person.

[NerdyCanadian]

ARGH! I wish I could find toys that are NOT made in China!

[brittany23lc]

@NerdyCanadian Just search American made toys on google.

[xxxxjunebugmamaxxxx]

That just p's me off because people are dissliking your video what they must be the people who would give those blocks to the consignment sale because they want the money. I wan't like the person payed for the extra block!!!

[aaalysssaaa]

Wow that is scary. I have these for my son and we would have never known. We just got them from Toys R' Us on sale for 11.97. I actually called the Toys R' Us where we got them, and they had no idea, which is really scary knowing that there are probably more toys on the shelf with problems like this. Very scary! Thanks Carla for bringing forth that dangerous problem.

[KittiesMama]

Thanks for sharing this info. Good job to that sharp viewer. =^.^=

[natsjourney77]

That's really dissapointing! I totally thought baby einstein stuff was good!

"You didn't cut the tags off, did you?" lol

[BaileyandPypersmom]

wow I cant believe she kept the block! Glad Hannah didnt get ahold of it before you were notified.

[brittanykay22109]

Good to know! Thanks for posting that!

[nitegal]

I am glad that one of your viewers knew about this. How crazy! I can't believe that someone would knowingly sell something like that, that is awful. And to basically keep them since 2007 when the recall was in effect....crazy!! I am just glad that you didn't have them that long before finding out. Thank you for letting everyone else know!!

[thecutestcarter]

cpsc.gov

you can check any recalls. just enter whatever you're questioning and if no matches show up, you're good =)

[TinaDeanette]

I've had these blocks since 2007! Both of my babies played with them! Thanks for posting this video :o)

I can't believe they kept that block! That makes me crazy!!

[allnaturalmamatobe]

YIKES! thanks for the info.
