Kids survive an awful lot. When I was little our cribs had lead paint. Houses built before 1978 had lead paint.
I recently did a blog on toy safety that might help you in choosing new toys. I’m still buying toys for my grandsons for Christmas and the baby is 1.

no not really but mine are 8 and past all the toys being recalled. Try to stick with outdoor play stuff and book and that type of thing

No I am not worried. We grew up with lead based paint in the houses and some of the same toys. I bet they didn’t check the lead in these either. I don’t ever remember hearing of people dying from this when I was younger. I don’t recall anyone getting sick or dying from any of these newer toys either.
I think people are overly cautious these days.
