: San Antonio Personal Injury LawyerToxic Toys Still on Shelves
By Beth Janicek
In August a safety law was passed as part of the Consumer Protection Product Safety Improvement Act but does not take effect until February 10th, therefore, leaving the shelves with dangerous toys. Buyers beware and shop smart.
The “Trouble in Toyland” reported in 2007, more than 80,000 children under the age of 5 ended up in the emergency room due to injuries from toys and 18 died.
A lot of these toys still contain lead, cadmium, mercury or other dangerous chemicals. Two years ago a 4 year old Minneapolis boy died after swallowing a heart-shaped charm made almost entirely of lead.
Since Christmas is such a wonderful time of year and is spent enjoying family, friends, good food and good cheer this is a message to everyone who may purchase toys this Christmas. Please read the following safety warnings prior to purchasing any toys and keep your kids and holidays safe.
