Just in time for holiday shopping

With the US Black Friday, everyone is pretty well gearing up for holiday shopping by now. I’m not actually shopping yet but I have been circling things in flyers as ideas, especially for the kids.
If you’re getting ready to start shopping for the children in your life, it’s worth checking out W.A.T.C.H. - World Against Toys Causing Harm inc. They have a list of things they consider to be the ten worst toys available right now. You might want to check and make sure that none of these toys are on your child’s wish list.
Included are the Go Diego Go Animal Rescue Boat for (guess) lead content and Jack Sparrow’s Spinning Dagger for potential eye injuries. You know, you’d think people would figure that giving a little kid something called a “spinning dagger” would automatically alert you to the fact that it may not be the ideal gift, but there you go.
Check out the full list. Anything on there that YOUR kids wanted?
