We do not claim that this product is "safe for young children". It is designed for children at least 6 and up. We were asked by a reader to find a modeling clay product that was made in the USA and lead free.

Back to the subject of Sculpy & fimo. They may be made in the usa, but that does not make them a safe product for young children. read their packaging.

I apologize if you are offended. However, most people are searching for China-free toys. Our intent was not to offend those from China, adopting from China or searching for Chinese goods.

If I may, what would be appropriate language?

While I understand the intent behind this blog. As an adoptive parent I object to the term "China-free". I would ask that as parents we use proper language on this subject.
