Although many toys are designed with safety in mind, no toy is completely safe. Toys that break or are mistreated might be hazardous. These pointers will assist you in selecting and maintaining safe toys. Share them with your child's caretakers and grandparents so that their homes, as well as the gifts they give your child, are safer.
1. Choose toys that are appropriate for your child's age and abilities.
2. Toys made of natural materials, such as cotton, wool, and uncoated wood, are the best.
3. Old wooden toys with damaged paint should be avoided. Lead could be present in the paint.
4. Avoid plastic toys with recycling codes #3, #6, and #7 by choosing toys that are phthalate-free, PVC-free, and BPA-free.
5. Choose non-toxic paints, crayons, markers, and other painting supplies.
