Another Top Pick for Lead Free Toys

Posted in Baby Gifts, Dolls, Gifts for Kids, Retro Shopping, Toddlers, Toys, Unique Items at 9:45 am by Deb Savvy

It’s always been one of our top picks for whimsically wonderful toys for babies, toddlers and children of all ages.  And here’s just one more reason to shop at Magic Cabin.  Every single product they sell is tested to the federal regulatory standards for lead in paint and toy safety including the American Standards for Testing Materials (ASTM) and the Code of Federal Regulations, Section 16, subsection 1303 (16 CFR 1303). Any toy exhibiting lead in the paint or coating materials (such as varnish) in excess of the allowable limits set by the Federal Government, or which does not meet their own stringent safety standards, is rejected from inclusion in the catalog.

A Best Bet Gift for the New Big Brother or Big Sister

Posted in Child Development, Gifts for Kids, New Baby, Toddlers, Toys at 9:09 pm by Deb Savvy

When sending a gift for a new baby, it’s always a good idea to send something for the new big brother or big sister, too.  Toddlers and younger kids are likely not to understand the showering of gifts for the new arrival and can be a bit jealous.  And they might be just a little bit bored, too.  That’s why I like to give a gift that will engage a child’s attention – something fun and consuming like puzzles. 

Bits and Pieces, Inc. 

Mom and Dad appreciate it too.  With a new baby in the house they’ve got their hands full.  Having a few new and interesting puzzles on hand can be an absolute lifesaver.  Just enough of a diversion to buy a few minutes of quiet time to do something else.

Let’s Talk Lead!

Posted in Baby Gifts, Breaking News, Child Development, New Baby Gifts, Shopping Tips, Toddlers, Toys, Toys that Teach at 6:18 am by Deb Savvy

How scary is this massive toy recall that’s underway?  In case you’ve been sleeping under a rock and don’t know, allow me to summarize.  Millions of toys manufactured in China, including many very popular and common toys manufactured by Mattel, Fisher Price and other major brands, have been recalled because they’ve been painted with lead based paints.  OY!  And we’re talking about some of the most popular and common toys for little kids.  The kind of toys that wind up in little mouths.  DOUBLE OY!  At this point, we’re all thinking about two things when it comes to safe toys.  First and foremost – what to do about the toys that are already in the house.  The answer is to check all your toys thoroughly and return EVERYTHING that is on ANY of the recall lists.  Many experts also suggest testing remaining toys with a home test kit.  Some people are even going as far as to get rid of any metal or painted toys that were made in China, regardless of their inclusion on a recall list.  How far to take the toy purge is a personal choice and I am far from an expert on the subject and would never tell anyone how to make the best choice to protect their children, grandchildren, neices and nephews.  I urge anyone reading this to educate yourself thoroughly about the facts and to check your home for recalled or suspicious products.  In other words, get the lead out!

 

Once that’s over, you’ve got to be thinking what I am at this point.  This is awful.  This is a pain.  This is annoying.  And most of all – I do not want to do this again.  Ever.  I want to buy toys that I know are safe so I don’t need to worry.  Wondering how to do that?  Check this out.  I’ve always been a fan of  eBeanStalk.com. Each one of their developmental toys is hand selected by experts to nurture intellectual growth and inspire creativity in newborns, toddlers and children up to about 5 or 6.  And here’s one more reason to be a fan. NOT ONE TOY ON THEIR SITE WAS INCLUDED IN ANY RECALL! And even better: THEY’VE LEAD TESTED EVERY SINGLE TOY THEY SELL JUST TO BE SURE. Now if that’s not enough to inspire confidence, I don’t know what is. I’m completely impressed with eBeanStalk.com and I know you will be too.
