Toys are really fun! When you play with toys, think about these things so you and your friends can be safe and have fun at the same time:

Play with toys that have smooth, not sharp, edges.
Keep toys out of your mouth, especially when walking or running.
Wear protective safety gear (like helmets and elbow pads) with in-line skates, skateboards, and bicycles.
If batteries for toys have burst or leaked, tell an adult--do not touch them.
When finished playing, pick up all toys. Keep all small parts of toys out of hands of younger friends (children age 3 or younger).
Don't fight over toys, and don't hit people with toys.
If you have a brother, sister, or friend with special needs, include them in your play activities and show them how the toys work.
