How to avoid the top 10 dangerous toys for babies?

  The choice of toys for babies is always a concern, especially for parents. But because of the uncertainties when it comes to children, there are times when adults can be negligent. In order to reduce the risk, we try to avoid some of the risk factors when choosing toys. So what are the ones to try to avoid? I give here 10 suggestions for you to make some references.
  1. Catapult toys: We often think of traditional toys such as slingshots, bows, and arrows, in addition to these we should also pay attention to toy pistols, water guns, these toys do not seem to have a high-risk factor, but the potential risk factor is relatively large because the child can not control the strength and object!
  2. Mask toys: this is not suitable for young children, on the one hand, most of the masks are made of plastic, the chances of this unsafe stepping on the mines is very large, failure to contain harmful chemicals is very common; in addition, children's respiratory system is already more fragile than adults, long time to wear easily cause brain hypoxia, dizziness or light, most afraid of causing suffocation.
  3. Balloon toys: Balloons are fantastic toys, but not for fragile children, the first is that when the balloon explodes, it is easy to cause injury to children, hydrogen balloons can also cause violent combustion when they meet the flame; secondly, once the balloon fragments enter the child's respiratory tract, it is difficult to remove, directly threatening life safety.
  4. Rope toys: We all know that children are full of curiosity, when there is a rope-like to pull or fling to play, then it is easy to wind up in the child's fingers or neck, and the baby does not know to stop, will only continue to pull, the result is very easy to cause tragedy. If you choose this type of toy, it is best to control the length of the string, e.g. not to exceed the length of the baby's neck. But it is best not to choose one.
  5. very small toys: these toys are easily swallowed by babies, and it goes without saying that this is a risk factor; so these toys should be placed in a safe position, out of the reach of children; children do not have the ability to distinguish on their own, so they must be avoided above all.
  6. Metal toys: metal as the main material, or all made of metal, with hard edges and burrs, and paint that may contain toxic substances. Metal toys are more dangerous and parents should be more careful and recommend not to buy them for children under five years old.
  7. Unsmooth toys: Toys with large, sharp particles on the surface can bruise or cut children. Parents are advised firstly not to buy unsmooth toys for their children and secondly to check the toys their children are playing with within a timely manner and to repair or eliminate them as soon as they are found to be broken.
  8. Children's toy cars: This is a common problem with seats, which can cause children to fall, and then there are problems with the car itself, chains, seat belts, etc. When unsupervised, children can drive into public transport roads, so toy cars should always be supervised by a parent.
  9. Musical toys: When choosing musical toys, we should consider the decibel size of the sound, whether the sound is too flashy, and whether the toy batteries are fixed and reliable. Too loud music can damage your baby's hearing, and loud music can affect your child's mood; in addition, there is a risk of the toy batteries being swallowed by your child if they are picked off.
  10. Poor quality plush toys: Plush toys with substandard fillings are likely to produce diseases such as respiratory infections and allergies; some plush toys have eyes, noses, buttons, etc., which may scratch the skin or be accidentally swallowed.
