Another Recall….This Time From Toys R Us

Toys R Us has announced a recall on an estimated 27,000 Imaginarium Wooden Coloring Cases. The cases were sold Oct. 06 to the present and included crayons, pastels, colored pencils, fiber pens, paintbrush, pencil, water colors, palette, white paint, ruler and pencil sharpener. According to the recall, both the wooden box and some of the water color paint contain lead. The recall advises buyers to return the sets to Toys “R” Us for a store credit.
My question is, how did this issue with lead paint even begin? Was there not someone in charge of manufacturing with these companies that was checking for this? I feel like this is only the beginning.
