If you are considering buying toys for Christmas, avoid purchasing it from unregistered stores. The Department of Trade and Industry reported that there are lots of stalls in the market right now who are selling toys that has been known to have higher lead content.
Lead poisoning is fatal and usually it is caused by lead-based paint. We should be careful in selecting a toy for our kids. We should not leave them alone while playing because kids as they are, they tend to swallow smaller parts of the toys.

We should practice safety measures at home, especially if there are kids. Yes it is true that every kid loves playing with their toys, we should not deprive them with that. However, we should not also allow them to harm themselves with the toys that we are giving them.
Remember, an ounce of prevention is better than a pounds of cure.
Be safe everyone.
