Toys Made in America

Here's the list of sites from Fox News http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,292056,00.html
Note - from what I saw, there's one or two of these sites that also offer toys made in China, but it will be noted in the product description of the toy. They also listed some American made toys below these websites.

Also, anything you buy from the American Plastic Toy Company
http://www.americanplastictoys.com/ is made in America. I found toys from this company are sold on Amazon.com.

I know there is a little toy store on Scottsdale road that sells nothing but american toys. I know it is in old scottsdale on scottsdale road but can not remember the name of it- I saw it in the paper earlier this year when all the recalls came about. I would try to go down to that area and see if you can find it. Sorry i couldn't provide a name.

I recommend brands like Plan Toys (make great trucks and City sets for boys..) they are made from recycled Rubber Trees in Thailand and use non-toxic dyes to color the toys.
Bruder trucks are made in Germany and are of excellent quality. http://search.store.yahoo.com/cgi-bin/nsearch?catalog=ext...
I know that the FA Schwartz site allows you to search toys by their origin. Babycenter has a section dedicated to toys not made in China.,. just Google "toys not made in China" and I am sure you will get many results. It may not be Spiderman or other cheaply made plastic toys one typically finds at Toys-R-Us but there are some really great (and educational) toys out there.
Good luck and happy holidays.

P.S. The Plan Toys Crane Set and city sets are on sale on this site. http://www.utoypia.com/plantoys.php?Name=Plantoys&gcl... I just bought some for my 2 sons.. they love the trucks!
P.S.S. I believe the Scottsdale Toy Store the person below me is referring to is Little Blue Choo-Choo. It is on the north side of Indian School Road just west of Scottsdale Road (across from Fuddruckers).
They sell all sorts of toys.. I don't think they are all not made in China though.. I have seen a few things that I believe are Chinese made.. you just have to do some research. :-) Great toy store though!

Try brilliantskytoys.com or Lakeshore Learning Store (www.lakeshorelearning.com)
Haven't been there yet..but worth a try..it's in Ahwatukee.
