Hi everyone! I'm new here and have been enjoying reading all the info. I have two gliders, Belle and Sebastian, and had some concerns about toys. With all the past recalls of toys that contained lead, are there any surefire safe toys? My kiddos have the foraging tub with fleece squares and straws, lots of fleece vines and hideouts, Wodent wheels etc. I recently found some awesome megablock toys at Goodwill and cannot quit worrying about the poosibility of lead (I'm a ridiculous worrier). I would appreciate any info y'all could provide!

I think they sell a test kit a Home Depot to test for lead paint.

you can always do a google search and see if there are already any reports about the toy. and if you cant find any then you can buy the test kit and maybe share the results with the rest of us. : )

Thanks Catman & Shadow! As paranoid as I am, im sure I'll be testing away in no time. I did try to Google some of my finds, but I guess they're older toys and I couldn't find much.
