Old Toys and Lead Contamination

My mother in law has saved all of my husband's old toys from 40 years ago and wants to pull them out for my 20 month old to play with them. He still occassionally puts toys in his mouth too. Most recently, she's suggested old match box and hot wheels cars. How can I learn more about whether these old tosy may contain lead based paint? I'm trying to be cautious so that I gather the info without hurting her feelings needlessly.

Looking for a Better Bath Tub

My son Jack is 5 weeks old and absolutely hates his bath. He screams the whole time no matter how gentle and soothing I try to be. His Primo Eurobath (which was recommeded by "Baby Bargains")is so slippery and, in reality, offers no support for a newborn. I can barely hold on to him and quickly wash him at the same time. Is there a better bath product for newborns that can make bath time a more pleasant experience for both of us?
