"CPSC Statement on Toy Safety and Zhu Zhu Pet Toys
CPSC is working especially hard this time of year to ensure that toys are safe for all children. The agency is proactively evaluating certain toys and we are working with consumer groups to test toys that have been brought to our attention. Parents should know that there is a new child safety law that went into place this year that: 1) lowers lead in toys to some of the lowest levels in the world, 2) bans certain phthalates from toys, and 3) puts federal limits on heavy metals like antimony from being in surface coatings on toys. CPSC is looking into the Zhu Zhu pet toy and we will complete our review swiftly. With new safety measures in place for children and toy recalls down from previous years, consumers can have greater confidence when shopping this year and in the CPSC."
If you are worried about the safety of the popular toy Zhu Zhu Pets, the US Consumer Product Safety Commission is evaluating these toys. They will post their findings as soon as they finish their evaluation. I will keep you posted and you can also check in at the CPSC website for their latest updates.

My younger sons were soo wanting this danggon toy and I almost bought one. ALMOST! I heard about the warning and said forget that. It seems every year theres a "hot new toy" that gets recalled. Its just too bad for the kids.
