Buy union. Don't buy toxic toys.

Be American and Buy American over the holidays. Even better, buy union made products, like New Balance moccasins, Justice Clothing hoodies and Radio Flyer wagons. (Canada is okay too.)

Don't buy toxic toys for your kids. Avoid Toys R Us products that have tested positive for PVC, which causes health problems in children. Some of the dangerous Toys R Us toys include Zhu Zhu Pets Hamster Hangout, Club Penguin figurines and You and Me dolls.


Here are some websites to get you started on buying union products.:
