Toys are an integral part of most children's childhoods, but because they are intended for children, it is vital that they are safe. This article will focus on ways to select safe plastic toys.

Most of today's toys are made of plastic. Substandard plastic toys can have an impact on the health of unaware children, so it's up to parents to keep their eyes peeled and choose quality toys for their children. Here are some tips from Voning.

Label of toys

When buying children's toys, consumers should pay attention to the logo on the hangtag or toy packaging, whether it indicates the manufacturer, applicable age group, safety warnings, implementation standards, product certification and other content. To select domestic plastic toys, you should look for products with the 3C certification mark and the national standard "GB 6675". Imported plastic toys should be selected to see if they are printed with the 3C certification mark and the inspection and quarantine certificate. In addition, it is best to choose plastic toys according to the age of the child.

Smell of toys

When buying toys, unpack and smell the product for pungent odours and refuse to buy any toys with irritating smells. Some plastic toys are not painted with environmentally friendly paints or use thinners containing benzene, xylene or ethylbenzene, resulting in a pungent smell.

Parts of toys

When looking at toys, pay particular attention to the presence of small parts. For example, for plush toys, try the plastic eyes and nose with your hands to see if they can be easily pulled off to avoid choking caused by swallowing or inhalation; for plastic toys, try the edges and tips of the toy with your hands to see if they are sharp. A few poor quality toys may have their coating (paint or lacquer) fall off when gently scratched, so do not buy such toys.

Plastic toys are children's growing-up friends and their quality should be taken seriously. I would also like to remind parents that, in general, plastic toys made by regular manufacturers are more quality assured, so it is advisable to pay attention to the manufacturer's information when choosing toys.
