"One way I do that is to buy toys that they can all play with. However, I have a hard time because, just as a matter of common sense, I think some toys for young kids are definitely not safe for toddlers.
"Can you share tips with me on what to watch out for so that the toys I buy for my boys are safe?"

[Summary] => Q. I have three children aged three to seven years old. How can I ensure their safety when buying toys for them? Are there safety standards that toy makers are required to follow?
A.As a rule of thumb, parents should avoid buying toys with sharp edges and parts that may be swallowed by children, especially those under five years old. Also avoid toys that are susceptible to flame.
When buying imported toys, look for the following markings on their boxes or packages:
* CE mark – a European safety and quality standard mark
