The danger of toys

According to the Safety Commission on Consumer Products, each year approximately 155,000 children are taken to emergency in one country because of toy-related injuries. It is assumed that the toys are educational, funny and part of childhood. Unfortunately, when toy manufacturers put earnings before safety, the result can be a toy made of poor quality with safety defects. These toys can cause catastrophic injuries, including eye injuries, head injuries, burns, fractures and other serious injuries.

The civil liability claims related to toys occur because of one of this four reasons:

• The age restrictions for the toy are inadequate or inaccurate.
• The toy came out defective during the manufacturing process. This may mean that the toy have sharp edges, parts that easily break off and cause a suffocation danger, or other risks. It can mean that the toy was manufactured with toxic paint or toxic materials that are harmful.
• The toy came with incorrect instructions. These instructions may not properly warn parents about the risks of the toy, or could not clearly explain how to put te toy together safely.

The design of the toy is unsafe. This often means that the toy was poorly designed, with sharp edges or other components that put the child's safety at risk.
