Dads look out, another toy manufacturer issues warning

This time its market leader Mattel and the Fisher-Price brand range. Apparently there are millions of products ranging from toys, trikes and high chairs that have all been 'voluntarily' withdrawn from retailers.

Numerous consumer protection organisations in the US and Canada raised the alarm. Makes you wonder what the UK consumer protection teams are up to?

Anyhow, the good news it that Fisher-Price have taken action to alleviate the problem. The bad news is that if you have bought any products it may take some time to find out if they are affected or not. The company has set up hot lines for parents/ consumers to call in and ask.

Now what ever happened to good old fashioned toys that work? Can't be that difficult to make surely?
