Only thing I worry about with toys is if the plastic they use is non-toxic. Most cheap toys sold online aren’t tested for plastic toxicity.
True enough, but toxic toys aren't super common in the US. It certainly happens, but they eventually get detected and recalled. That being said, with Trump's plans for gutting regulatory bodies even further, I'll be much less inclined to order cheap toys from online.
Ive never heard of anything from temu or similar being recalled
If your kid tries to eat their camera you have bigger issues to worry about.
Heavy metals and volatile chemicals can leech through skin. Some have cumulative effects.
If you think toxic means harmful only if you eat it, I've got a glow in the dark watch to sell you.
That will match my authentic late 1800s green wallpaper perfectly.
Not the best example, the health risks from radium dials were mostly to the people that painted them, because they licked their brushes to point them.
mostly is doing a lot of heavy lifting in that sentence. Would you like to buy my glow in the dark watch, then?
