Another potential hazard that a toy may present to toddlers and young children are toys that have small parts. Toys that have tiny and removable parts increase the probability of choking incidents. The squeakers in squeeze toys for instance can be easily removed by a curious child and get swallowed.

Even those lovely looking dolls might have damaged seams that can be torn open and which may contain small parts and pellets that pose a potential swallowing hazard. So if you have to gift your toddler with a toy, make sure that it is safe and secure. If possible opt for those toys that are safely packaged and designed, but at the same time provide them the entertainment that they need.
