Toys are a big part of the fun of being a child.
We anticipate that toys will enhance a child s playtime and we never expect that a child s toys could cause injury. Statistics however tell us a different story. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, at least 13 children died in 1996 while playing with toys. In the not too distant past there was little that was done to ensure that toys were safe. This public law required toy manufacturer s to place warning labels on toys containing small parts, including balls, marbles, and other choking hazards.
