Lead Poisoning Toys Household?
My daughter had a lead test at 2 years old of 5. I know that's not high but it's higher than average. The nurse told us to look around for things that could be the cause. We don't live in an old house. Could it be the toys? If so, how can you tell which ones. I also heard a lot of things from China are a problem. I looked around the house and 90% of everything in the house is made in china.

Here is a link to the database of recalled products, including toys: http://www.cpsc.gov/cgi-bin/haz.aspx Examples of recent recalls - Abalone and Venetian Carnevale Necklace Craft Kits: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09211.html Action figure toys sold in Dollar stores: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09332.html Also, have you or other people that give a ride to your daughter worked at businesses that did metals recycling or removed paint from old buildings? Lead dust in the family vehicles and on the child safety seats could be a source of exposure too: http://www.cdc.gov/mmwr/preview/mmwrhtml/mm5832a2.htm
