| Warning about this toy!!! I bought this little toy at the dollar tree. Razael is the only one of the girls who loves toys, so she was quietly playing with this one when I heard her crunching something and I pulled out a piece of plastic from her mouth and found a few more on the floor. This toy was stuffed with plastic instead of 100% polyester as states on the tag. Made in China. Just wanted to let everyone know NOT to buy this. |

| I just heard that hoses 'made in china' have lead in them and when laying outside in the heat all day, lead can go into the water....I fill my babies pool with fresh water everyday and they drink it !!!!!!!! It'll have to be tap water from now on..

| All hoses have lead in them unless you buy the RV/Camper hose that says "safe for drinking" I think it's interesting that people will buy a toy for $1 that is junk but complain that prices for things made in the USA or tested for lead/contaminants are too expensive. I'm not sure we can have it both ways. (Not singling you out... I've noticed this over quite some time...)
