Just try to find *insert item here* NOT made in China

I have recently decided that we (as a family) should really not be supporting China. I do not agree with their government and I don’t think that they make good (read safe) products.

So, I decided to pull out all our toys to see where everything was from. 80%+ was made in China. YIKES. Scott got me to conceded that we shouldn’t just chuck everything because it was made in China, but that we could going forward not buy stuff (mostly toys) made there. I on the other hand got him to conceded that we should replace all of our “baby” toys (read things that will end up in Jessaleigh’s mouth that would be OK except for where they where manufactured – i.e. not choking hazards etc.)

Now I am on the quest for non-China teething toys. It is a very difficult thing to find! So far, none of the “big box stores” have anything. I have founds 2 brands in a specialty toy store, but man are they expensive. I need to go check out online, because I am sure to find tons of stuff there, although it may still be ueber expensive. I guess that really is the price we pay for our convictions.
