Toy Safety Recalls

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is the federal government agency that has the responsibility to keep children and families safe from hazardous consumer products. 

The CPSC's work to ensure the safety of consumer products - such as toys, cribs, power tools, cigarette lighters, and household chemicals - contributed significantly to the 30 percent decline in the rate of deaths and injuries associated with consumer products over the past 30 years. 

As recalls still occur, Safe Kids encourages you to be mindful of the recently recalled toys below:

SMALL PARTS TESTER

One very easy step that you can take to prevent choking in relation to toys is to buy a small parts tester. Small parts testers, also known as "choke tubes," are designed for testing which objects are small enough to pose a choking hazard to kids ages 3 and under. If the item fits into the tester, then it is too small for a child this age.  This device is a great tool to help parents with children of various ages know what toys and small parts may pose a hazard for the littlest ones. Visit the Safe Kids Store to buy a small parts tester
