Winnie the Pooh playsets recalled due to high lead levels

Categories: Nutrition & Supplements

Oh now, here we go again. More toys are being recalled due to lead paint scares, and national retailer J.C. Penney has joined the fray now by recalling thousands of Winnie-the-Pooh doll play sets, wooden art boxes and horse-themed holiday ornaments.

In perfect holiday season timing, all of these products were recalled due to unsafe levels of lead paint, including over 49,000 Winnie-the-Pooh playsets. These products, quite naturally, were made in China.

Now, as a parent, here is the scary part: these products were not new ones, as they had been sold for a two-year period that just ended this last August. The Winnie-the-Pooh art boxes do give China a break, as they were made in Vietnam and Taiwan.
