Amid new recalls of Chinese goods, U.S. toymakers are scrambling to make the holidays safer. It's September, do you know where your children's Christmas toys are coming from? Even if you haven't thought about it yet, U.S. toymakers are so worried about losing the confidence of wary parents this holiday season that the industry has asked the Federal Government to require mandatory safety testing at the toy companies expense. It's a remarkable admission of just how thoroughly this year's massive recalls of goods from China have shaken up Toyland. Recalls are meant to act as a safely valve, a quick way to get potentially dangerous products off store shelves before they do harm. Instead, the wave of recalls this year from China--the source of 80% of the world's palythings--has cast a cloud of suspicion over any toy carrying the MADE IN CHINA label.
