But it's not 'just toys', actually.

Jewelry from China has also been recalled due to lead content.

I think Wallymart and K-Mart are selling it. Maybe more stores.

High Lead Levels Found In Over 601,000 Popular Children's Products

WASHINGTON, Sept. 27, 2007

(CBS/AP) Toys and children's necklaces made in China were recalled Wednesday, including five more items from the popular Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line, because they contain dangerous levels of lead.

RC2 Corp.'s "Knights of the Sword" series toys and some of its Thomas and Friends items, along with floor puppet theaters, chairs for children, and toy gardening tools sold by Ohio-based Jo-Ann Stores Inc., were among the more than 601,000 toys and children's jewelry announced in the recall by the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

The recalled toys contain high levels of lead in their surface paint, and the necklaces and jewelry sets contain excessive lead in some of their metal parts.

This recall involves jewelry sets sold in different styles: a pink and clear crystal bead necklace and bracelet set with a painted metallic crown pendant; a pink and white pearl necklace and bracelet set with a painted metallic poodle pendant; and a pink pearl necklace, earrings and ring set.

This recall is expanded to include two additional styles: a pink crystal and wood bead necklace and bracelet set with a monkey pendant; and a pink and clear crystal bead necklace and bracelet set with a heart pendant. All sets are sold in a pink gift box with “TOBY & ME” printed on the front and “TOBY & ME” hangtags attached to the packaging, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

more.......

I wouldn't doubt that 'teen' jewelry also contains high lead!
