Weekly Roundup – Toy Recall Edition
Tip It!As I’m sure you’re aware, there have been a ton of toy recalls over the past year or so. Not long ago, I ran across the US Consumer Product Safety Commission’s master list of toy recalls (link). Unfortunately, they don’t offer an RSS feed… But we do!
You can read more about our toy recall RSS feed over at Raising4Boys, but the upshot is that you can subscribe by adding the following url to your preferred newsreader:
