 BEWARE - Contains Toxic Materials Sep 11, 2010
By Belkis Gonzalez
This item just arrived, a gift for my 2 year-old son. He was thrilled when he saw it. It was therefore terribly upsetting to discover the following warning (in tiny print) on one of the product labels: "WARNING: This product contains chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer and birth defects or other reproductive harm." This warning follows the requirements of California Proposition 65 (ample material about it on the web). This warning is, of course, unacceptably vague. However, no caring parent would risk exposing their child to a toxic substance. This morning, my son woke up asking for his backpack. I am saddened, angered, and frustrated that he and I have been put in this position by inadequate regulation of toy safety (the backpack is made in China) and inadequate disclosure (both on the toy tag and on the Amazon website) identifying the specific potential risk.

 Cute but small Jan 11, 2007
By N. Rocha
"nrocha2003"
I bought this bag for my 3 year old daughter this Christmas. She loves Dora and has been asking for this backpack for the longest time. She was thrilled when she got it but when she wanted to put a book in it and a folder, they didn't fit. It's quite small and when you put something a little heavy in it, the magnetic closing comes open. So all in all, if your kid will use it for play, it's fine. But if you're thinking of using it as a real backpack for school let's say, then look at a bigger one than this.

DO NOT BUY Oct 07, 2010
By HKF
I was so excited to give this toy to my 3 year old who LOVES dora and backpack. It is an adorable looking backpack...everything we wanted. But after I opened it, I just happened to read the tag on it and in very small print it reads, "Warning! This product contains a chemical known to the state of California to cause cancer, birth defects or other reproductive harm." I cannot believe that this product is being sold with such a warning! I immediately put it back in its package and am sending it back. Global Design Concepts makes this product and I have tried to call them about it but I never can talk to a person. So, please beware if you choose to buy this!

 Ray Mar 09, 2007
By Ray Chen
I bought this bag for my 2-year-old son. Dora the Explorer is one of his favorite TV programs broadcasting in Taiwan. This bag is small but fit his little toys. I think it's a good bag for little kids.

The mouth decoration contains high level of phthalate Sep 07, 2011
By Kristin
I found the site clarifying the nature of the toxic material mentioned by other reviewers:
[...]
It does not violate toy safety law, but the chemical is toxic. This is a chemical present in countless consumer products.
