Burning questions for the Toy Industry Association
Categories: Playground bureau, Toys & games, Shopping and recalls
News about the perils of our children's toys has infiltrated newspapers, TV, the radio, and especially the Internet -- ParentDish included. I've been perplexed to hear about all the lead in toys, but it was easy enough for me to skirt the issue -- my son, after all, plays only with a few toys: his dinky cars and a miniature hockey stick and ball. I don't buy him a lot of toys.Nevertheless, it's an issue that's on a lot of parent's minds. Some of us are bafflled, some of us are mad -- some of us just want to fire questions at the People in Charge -- what the hell is going on?
One of my favourite bloggers, Liz over at Mom 101, has provided a forum for that latter urge. As an "influential Mom blogger" (whom PR firms looove these days), Liz was approached last week with the opportunity to ask questions of the head of the Toy Industry Association.
In her typically generous way, Liz has opened up her blog as a place for Moms to ask their burning questions of the person behind much of the lead controversy. Got a question? Ask it over there.
I'm very much interested in combing through the answers.
