Spotlight on Health
It is easy to forget about safety factors when it comes to buying toys and gifts. During the gift-giving season, it is important to consider age/skill appropriateness and the overall safety of toys and gifts given to children, especially infants and toddlers. Be sure to consider safety and age range factors and remember the following:
- Inspect gifts before you buy – look for broken or loose pieces and avoid gifts with smaller flying or detachable parts
- Avoid gifts with sharp edges or points
- Consider a gift’s size so it is not too large or heavy when used by smaller children
- Consider skill / use appropriateness
- Look for safety inspection verification – “ATSM” means the item has met safety standards by the American Society for Testing and Materials
- Be sure Crayons and other art and craft supplies are “nontoxic”
- Be sure gifts do not contain lead
- Be sure gifts do not have ropes or heat elements
