When purchasing toys for children, parents must carefully check. There are several rules for buying toys and how to choose safe toys for your child:

1. Pay attention to the qualifications of the toy manufacturer. Check whether the toy or its description includes the manufacturer's name, factory address, manufacturing date, materials used, appropriate age, safety warnings, implementation standard number, product certification, etc.

2. Check for places that may cause injury. Confirm whether the toy is soft and comfortable, and whether there are any sharp protrusions or edges on the surface.

3. Is there a smell? Smell the toy with your nose to check for any odors. If there is a smell, do not purchase it. Especially for painted toys, verify that they meet safety and non-toxicity standards.

4. Shake the toy. Check whether the toy's structure is stable and whether any parts are loose or falling off. Pay special attention to attachments like the eyes or nose of stuffed toys to ensure they are secure.

5. Pay attention to the length of toys with strings. For some pull toys, you need to check the length of the rope. Usually, it should be less than 30 cm.

6. Check the loudness. Be careful if some sound toys are too loud. The sound should not exceed 70 decibels.

7. Toys that are easy to clean. Make sure the toy is easy to clean, convenient, safe, and hygienic.

8. Be cautious with electric toys. Check that the battery compartment is secure and smooth on all sides.

9. Be aware of allergies. It is not appropriate to provide stuffed toys, fabric toys, especially those with long hair, to children with allergies.

10. Flexible and strong. Toys need to be flexible and sturdy; do not buy toys made of styrofoam or other materials that children are likely to tear or chew.

11. Do not buy toys that are too small. For example, marbles that children might swallow.

12. Pay attention to hygiene. Every time children play with toys, make sure to wash their hands and keep them clean and hygienic.

13. Regular spot checks. You need to perform regular spot checks on toys to see if they are damaged, parts are loose, or scattered. Tighten screws if loose. Remove damaged or scattered toys and add new ones.

14. Disinfect toys. Some fur or cotton toys can be sterilized using disinfectants or exposure to sunlight.
