lead in lunch boxes!

If your child has any soft-sided vinyl lunchboxes, check out this link.

The level of lead in one lunch box, an Angela Anaconda box made by Targus International, tested at 56,400 parts per million (ppm) of lead, more than 90 times the 600 ppm legal limit for lead in paint in children’s products.

It is not possible to tell by appearance whether a vinyl lunch box may contain lead, so CEH is advising parents to avoid vinyl lunch boxes altogether.

Bye, bye, soft and squishy Bob the Builder box. Your claymation cuteness is certainly appealing, but you are simply not worth the risk.
