There are many things that could go wrong with childrens toys and there are things you can do to keep them safe.

BEFORE YOU BUY THE TOY:

• Look to see
  if the age on the box is for your child.
• Make sure all the eye's and nose exc is on tight, those parts could come off and become a choking hazard.
• Watch for toys with Edges and points because if they fall while holding it that could become a bad situation.
• Make sure that any toys with small pieces are on tight because tehy could come of and again become a choking hazard.

AFTER YOU BUY THE TOY:

• Follow all instructions and safety messages.
• Make sure they use the toys properly.
• Look over the toys regularly.
• Put the toys away so that they trip over them, you can teach them to put there own toys away.
• Watch them when they are playing with ballons.
