Jul 22, 2020
1. It depends on the color of the toy
High-quality plastic toys the color much better braighter than inferior toys. This is because high-quality plastic toys are usually made of PVC, PP, PE and other plastic raw materials, and the plastic itself is very shiny. Many low-quality toys are usually made of "recycle materials" (that is, materials that are recycled and reprocessed from waste plastic products), and the color becomes worse after reprocessing. Although it does not necessarily guarantee that the color is good, it must be safe, but the products with poor gloss and poor color are safe products.
2. It depends on the thickness of the toy .
The biggest feature of plastic toys is that the finished products or parts are injection-molded at one time. If the inner wall of the injection-molded toy is too thin, it is easy to break and fall when children play, and the plastic parts will break and produce small fragments, sharp edges, and corners. Danger to the baby. Generally, the plastic wall in corners or arcs is thicker than other places, which increases the damage tolerance of the toy when it falls to the ground and reduces the damage.
3. Depends on the safety certification and label instructions of the toy
The state stipulates that plastic toys must pass the national compulsory product certification, and the manufacturer, origin, main material composition, warning slogans, product certification and other labels must be checked.
4. Smell the smell of plastic toys
The German Consumer Protection Center pointed out that if some children's toys have a pungent smell, they should contain harmful substances, such as phthalate plasticizers. Therefore, it is recommended that everyone smell the smell when buying toys. Some experts suggest that you can wash the toys and air them first, so as to evaporate the smell of the plastic as much as possible, and reduce the peeling paint and the heavy metal content. If the plastic toy is marked to withstand high temperatures, you can also boil the toy before using it.
5. Test the plastic toys
For safety reasons, moms and dads recommend to try them carefully when buying toys to see if there are potential safety hazards and whether they are suitable for babies. During the trial, you can shake the toy to see if the various parts are firm and whether there are small parts; or pull the toys with ropes to see if the length is appropriate; when choosing a sounding toy, try to see if its sound is too loud . It is best to touch the edges and corners of the toy to see if there are sharp objects to avoid scratching the baby.
