Check out my video on toy safety for the holidays

It's important for parents and caregivers to be aware that sometimes toys, which we think of as being fun and entertaining, can be dangerous.

In the video, I discuss tips for selecting toys, such as reading the labeling for age recommendations and not buying inexpensive metal jewelry that could contain lead, and why kids should get helmets when they scooters and skateboards for presents.

Thanks to Jason Brick, founder of Safest Family on the Block, for the opportunity to make the video.
