Anyone who buys toys should be aware that a toy, safe for one age group, may be a hazard foi a younger child. "Good old-fashioned common sense is the clue for all toy shoppers," Edgar T. Britton, executive director of the Illinois Society for _ the Prevention of Blindness, emphasizes. "Shoppers should ask themselves before com­ pleting any purchase: Can the toy shatter? Can seemingly harmless wood splinter? Does the toy have sharp edges that could endanger the eyes?" There is always an element of danger to young, inquisitive eyes in any toy, Britton points out. Also, youngsters have an innate desire to take their toys apart, and this innocent exercise in demolition could uncover dangerous fragments. The eyes, for example can often be pulled out of a stuffed animal or doll by an inquisitive child, exposing sharp objects which could be a threat to vision. This year, Britton concludes, shop with even greater care. The objective is to bring jpy, not tragedy, into young lives.
