This is strictly an issue over lead. As of next Tuesday no children's product can be sold unless it's certified lead free. It applies to virtually everything. It's so outlandish even public libraries have been told to either remove all children's books or forbid those 12 and under to enter the premises. Even thrift stores are having to pull all used items from their store shelves for kids or face a $100,000 fine for EACH item.
EDIT: They might have backed off slightly on thrift stores. http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml09/09086.html
