Some reminders when shopping for the children this holiday season:
Choking is still the leading cause of death related to toys.
Be sure to inspect toys for small removable parts or balloons, especially with children under three years old.
Toys that are too loud can cause hearing loss with repeated exposure. Avoid buying toys that produce high decibel levels.
Look for toys that are age-appropriate, sturdy, and constructed without sharp edges.
Beware of long strings or cords that can strangle children.
Always read the warning labels before making a purchase.
If you purchase a bike, skateboard, or in-line skates, buy a safety helmet, too.
Toys sold online don't always include all the necessary safety warnings. You should not assume that a toy bought online without a warning label doesn't need one.
