This webpage explains how to choose safe toys for school-age kids. Parents should supervise play and ensure toys meet safety standards set by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). Tips include checking labels for age-appropriateness, ensuring fabric toys are flame resistant, and avoiding loud or old toys. Safety gear is essential for bikes and skateboards, while toy guns should be brightly colored to avoid confusion with real weapons. Regularly inspect and clean toys at home, discarding broken ones promptly. For updates on toy recalls or reporting unsafe items, visit the CPSC website or call their hotline.
