The lead paint issues have not yet been totally taken out of the scene as even kid network giant, Walt Disney, has reportedly recalled over 12,000 sleeping bags and magic wands that were excessively contaminated with lead paint.

Now if you are a sleeping expert, where does the lead paint come from? Well if you look closely, sleeping bags normally have zippers and they can be a cause for lead paint poisoning. For the toy wands, lead paint is present in the pearl beads in the flowers of the toy.

Just in case you have one of these goods, it would be best to surrender them to the nearest stores so that you can get a full refund. Better yet, so that you can avoid incurring problems as well for the health and welfare of your kids.

Thousands of sleeping bags and magic wands contaminated by excessive levels of lead paint are being recalled by Walt Disney, federal inspectors said today.
The recall targets 4,100 Pirates of the Caribbean sleeping bags and 8,000 Tinker Bell wands sold at Disney Stores nationwide between April and October of 2007, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said.

No injuries have been reported, the agency said.

The sleeping bags have lead paint on the zipper, while the wand contains lead paint on pearl beads in flowers on the top of the toy, the agency said.

Consumers were advised to stop using the bags and wands and return them to stores for a full refund.
