For safe holiday shopping here are 500+ toys not made in China

With all the recalls this year of toys made in China -- due to lead paint and other hazards -- TheDailyGreen was kind enough to publish a list from Toys "R" Us marked "not made in China."

The list includes the item numbers on the Toys "R" Us web site. And unfortunately, there are no guarantees that all the products are really not made in China. Even if the toys are made in countries other than China, that does not necessarily mean that the toys are safe.

To be sure, you'll need to check the safety of the toys yourself by calling the manufacturer. It would be nice if the government could help make toy shopping safe for Americans. But it won't so you'll have to take responsibility for protecting your children from toy manufacturers.

Not made in China label is not good enough. Need to identify the people who decide what goes on a toy and what doesn't. Those guys might not have Chinese names, you know.

God has not left us, we have left Him!! If only we believed that He has the power to save us, we would be saved. Prayer works, maybe we should stop worrying about our childrens toys and start praying that their toys would not harm them in any way!!
