Safe Toys

Parents....listen up!!! This is a very important message. Please be careful with what toys or items you leave around the house. If its little or big enough to swallow.....get rid of it or put it away....far away!!!



Toys are important for learning but you really need to choose very carefully to keep kids safe. Some injuries can be serious enough to require hospital emergency treatment. Small parts that are swallowed can become lodges in a child's throat, ears and even nostrils. 


Important things to look out for when buying toys for young children:

* look for high quality (cheap quality can break),      read reviews and feedback to get ideas,
* Watch out for sharp edges and small parts,
* Read the labels such as "Not recommended for children under 2 years of age" or "non-toxic" on toys in case it ends up in their mouths which is likely as kids are known to put everything in the mouths.

When choosing a toy for a young child make sure it:


* is big enough so it cannot be swallowed,

* does not have small pieces that can detach,
* will not break easily,
* is labeled "non-toxic" and is age appropriate.
