Shop Safe…Shop Smart
Choosing Kid Safe Toys
The Holidays are approaching and our thoughts turn to gifts for our loved ones. Do you have a toddler you’re shopping for? Make sure you are shopping for safe toys for your child. You should always make sure you are shopping for toys that are for their age and skill ability. It is frustrating for a two year old to try to play a game meant for a six year old. Some toys may prove to be a safety hazard if it contains small pieces. Small parts fit easily into a toddler’s mouth and could be a choking hazard. Small children and infants seem to automatically put items in their mouths.
Avoid any toy with sharp edges. A toy with a sharp edge can be a potential safety hazard if the tot has the toy and is walking or running. Again, they like to put things in their mouth, so a sharp toy could potentially damage their mouth.
Read labels before buying. Labels give age and safety recommendations to guide you in which age group the toy is suitable for. Also, look at the instructions. If you can’t understand them, then probably your child won’t be able to understand them either. Avoid another safety hazard for your tot by immediately throwing away all plastic wrappings from the toys. These are a suffocation hazard.
Some of the toys that are on the list are by well-known toy companies including toy companies that we trust to make safe toys for our tots.
Do your research and buy the toys that are suitable to the age of your child.
