Stores that sell everything for a dollar may be selling scary stuff
One Stockton mom got an unwanted surprise when she realized the art set she bought for her little girl had a retractable razor knife in it. Cute little bear graphics on items in the set would lead most of us to believe the set was intended for children. But a lot of this mass-produced merchandise comes from other countries, where regulations may not be as strict as they are here. It's best not to assume safety. Check all toys and craft kits for yourself before you hand them over to little ones.
