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
