Unfortunately, not all parents think about the dangers when buying toys for their children or letting them play with objects that are not intended for use by children. These include cheap and fashionable, seemingly harmless trinkets. What toys shouldn't kids buy?
Instructions
Step 1
Neokub. This is a construction set consisting of magnetized metal balls. The balls are so small that they are easy to swallow. Once in the child's intestines, the details cannot leave it, since they simply stick together, while the baby's peristalsis continues to work, that is, the smooth intestinal muscles contract, pushing the contents to the exit, there is a possibility of perforation of the intestinal walls, which can lead to lethal outcome. For many years, there has been a struggle with this toy, but some parents still buy a neocube for their children, who may even take it with them to kindergarten, endangering other children as well.
Step 2
Laser pointer. Having appeared on our market about two decades ago, this cheap toy of Chinese production does not lose its popularity; despite the high degree of danger to children, it can still be easily purchased from the stalls of street vendors. A laser pointer, when the beam enters the eye of a person or animal, can cause irreparable harm to health, since the effect of this beam causes damage to various parts of the eye.
Step 3
Monster High dolls, which are, in fact, corpses in various stages of decomposition, sewn up in places, and their attributes. Such a toy is not deadly, but it threatens the child's psyche. Also, the toy distorts the child's idea of reality and moral norms, bringing cruelty to the pedestal of popularity, as something right. But what about compassion, kindness, tenderness and femininity? Why do parents buy dismembered corpses, coffins, tables for torture and so on for their daughters, whose vocation is to become mothers, wives, creators in the future?
Step 4
Airguns. Toy pistols and submachine guns that shoot plastic balls, having a fairly high power of the shot and a firing range of up to 50 meters. Often children, armed with such weapons, run on the street, playing "war". Bullets-balls can be purchased in any department of toys, they are sold willingly and at a cheap price. Somehow, not really thinking about the fact that boys can injure not only each other, but also bystanders, children and animals.
Step 5
Pyrotechnics. Despite the legal prohibitions on the sale of pyrotechnics without the appropriate documents, at any time of the year, and especially on New Year's Eve, they still sell pyrotechnics on the streets and any child can buy firecrackers and firecrackers for pocket money. The result is injured limbs, eyes, burns and severed fingers.
Sets of the young chemist. Contains hazardous, corrosive chemicals that can cause severe chemical burns. Usually, the packaging has a warning note: "The toy is intended for a child's activities under the supervision of adults", but, as a rule, children play on their own.
Step 6
Bright cheap toys of dubious origin. They can be bought from street vendors in the market. Such toys have a pronounced chemical aroma, can cause allergies and even poisoning.
Bouncing balls with spikes. Glowing "hedgehogs" made of a soft material, presumably silicone, have an insert inside that glows when shaken. This insert is filled with a liquid of unknown origin, very toxic. If the shell is damaged, the liquid spills out, evaporates and can cause a strong allergic reaction, up to Quincke's edema.
This is not a complete list of dangerous toys for children. Be careful what you buy for your children!
