Hogsett, extension safety specialist at the University bf Illinois, found the genial gentleman perfectly willing to cooperate in providing safe toys for children at Christmas time. But Santa insisted that he needs parents' help too. "Certainly I think children should have safe toys," Santa "But many times parents order things that turn out "to be dangerous. I just fill their orders and deliver the goods. Speak to the parents about it." Play is a child's world and entertainment. But it also stimulates growth of his physical, mental and social abilities. So select playthings that are appropriate to the age, interest and mental and physical abilities of your child. Also see that playthings are sturdy and well made. Avoid cheaply constructed or breakable toys that will come apart or be. broken under strenuous child play leaving jagged edges that may cause cuts and infection. Santa also had a word of advice for those who plan to drive during the holidays. "Take it easy and drive carefully," he said.
