Injuries have already been reported. Pegs that fall out of products have caused children to fall or pieces where small enough that they where found in the child's mouth. Seven children even required stitches.
The Sun Sentinel offers these good tips:
No matter which company manufacturers your children’s toys, it is extremely important for parents and adults to check out the toys they buy.
Test them. Play with them. Look for ways they can cause problems.
Tug on small parts to see if they could come off.
Drop them on the ground to see if anything jars loose.
Watch your child play with the toys over an extended period to get a good idea of how they use the toy. Even so-called “safe” toys can be dangerous when used incorrectly.
Talk to other parents. If you know someone else who has the toy, ask about their experience.
