Defective Toy Injuries

Responsible parents face numerous challenges when monitoring their children’s safety. One serious threat to the health and well-being of their offspring is the danger posed by defective toys. Children are often unable to tell the difference between properly made products and dangerous ones. Parents must be wary of the hazards posed by defective toys and games in the home.

Many products that appear to be safe at first reveal themselves to be dangerous upon further inspection. Sharp edges, small detachable pieces, and malfunctioning parts often contribute to injuries to children.

Common Injuries Caused by Defective Toys

The following are commonly reported injuries caused by defective toys:

• Choking caused by small pieces or parts of the defective toy.
• Strangulation or entanglement caused by strings, ropes, and nets attached to the product.
• Electrocution due to faulty wiring and electrical systems.
• Eye injuries caused by trigger mechanisms, darts, and other objects fired from the product.
• Toxic chemicals, metals, or paint used on or in the product.

For any parent, it is important to examine all toys for dangerous parts, pieces, and mechanisms before allowing your child to play with the product. In some cases, however, even a thorough inspection will not reveal the dangers posed by a defective toy.
