It is just nice now when she visits I don't have to remember to wash my hands before giving her a hug. If you are careful with lead - and use the precautions you suggested - I'm sure it can be pleanty safe to use.
How do you protect your 3 year old from the Cedar dust that gets
on everything? Another hidden danger in our shops.
