Now, there are standards that guide the use of toys, as baby toys can result in choking hazards if not properly used. Here are things to watch out for when choosing or using baby toys:

• All baby toys need to be larger than your child’s mouth.

• Pay attention to safety labels such as “Flame retardant/flame resistant” or “Washable/Hygienic materials” on dolls and other stuffed toys.
