Hi folks. Maybe you've heard about the new legislation that passed recently, maybe not.

It's the Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act (CPSIA.)

Please check out this site to see
that not only might my toys become illegal on February 10th, but thousands of small businesses could be forced to shut down due to unreasonable testing certification requirements!
All businesses that provide products for anyone 12 yrs and younger will be affected! Thrift stores will no longer be able to offer resale items intended for this age group!

Here are some other links that can better describe what is happening right now.
