SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — Some vinyl baby bibs made in China and sold at Toys R Us stores contain lead levels well above federal safety limits for lead in paint, a California environmental group said yesterday.
"We are pleased that this matter is fully resolved and is now behind us," said Kathleen Waugh, spokeswoman for privately held Toys R Us, based in Wayne, N.J.
Though Toys R Us regularly tests the products it sells for lead, Ms. Waugh said, the May tests were prompted by Wal-Mart's decision that month to recall lead-tainted vinyl bibs from its stores nationwide.
