As the holiday season draws nearer, toy recalls are the last thing that parents and toy makers want to see in the headlines.

Yet, another massive toy recall has just occurred.

Nineteen of CPSC`s toy recalls in 2007 were due to violations of the standard for lead paint.

This time, Mattel Inc. recalled 155,000 toys, amid concerns that the toy kitchen`s faucet could be a choking hazard to children.

4 million toy 4“Aqua Dots,” made by Moose Enterprises, were recalled because they contain a chemical coating. The hydroxy butyrate content can lead to unconsciousness, seisures, coma and death

In all, the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) conducted 61 toy recalls so far in 2007 -- up from 40 in 2006.
