Two more US firms have recalled Chinese-made toys, saying they include paint with dangerous levels of lead.
The items include SpongeBob SquarePants spiral address books and diaries, Thomas the Tank Engine spinning tops and some toy buckets sold in the US.
The recall of about 300,000 toys comes a week after US firm Mattel recalled 18.5 million toys.
That prompted a US senator to called for all toys imported into the country from China to be inspected.
