2017 \”Deadly Toys\” Inventory, Don\’t Buy It for Your Children Again

Recently, a piece of news has made parents\’ hearts tighten again: 8-year-old boy Xiaofei (pseudonym) is in the second grade. He did well in the midterm exam, so his family bought him some snacks from the supermarket as a reward. Ten minutes later, the mother who was cooking in the kitchen suddenly heard her son\’s screams and ran out in a hurry, but was frightened by the sight in front of her: Xiao Fei covered his eyes and howled loudly, rolling around on the ground in pain. , there was an exploded drink bottle beside it, and water was everywhere on the floor… The mother tremblingly sent Xiao Fei to the hospital, but the doctor told her that the child\’s right eye was eroded by alkaline liquid and the entire eyeball was dissolved. Causes lifelong blindness. What caused this harrowing accident? It turned out that Xiao Fei found a hard packet in the snack bag. He smelled it and then put it into a drink bottle with water. Unexpectedly, it exploded as soon as he put it in, burning his right eye. That’s right, the packet Xiao Fei mentioned is food desiccant! Perhaps most parents know that food desiccants cannot be eaten, but they did not expect that the harm can be so great! There are mainly four common desiccants on the market, quicklime, calcium chloride, mineral and silica gel desiccant. The quicklime desiccant will explode. Quicklime is also called calcium oxide. When it meets water, it will produce calcium hydroxide, which instantly releases huge energy and can easily explode a plastic bottle. Unfortunately, it was too late for Xiaofei\’s mother to understand this. Children\’s safety always requires a high degree of protection, but it is often ruined by a moment of negligence. Today we will take stock of the dangerous toys that endanger children\’s health and life in 2017, and let\’s pay more attention to prevention. Dangerous Toys 1: Luminous Hydrogen Balloons Luminous hydrogen balloons, also called Bobo Balls, can be said to be this year’s “Internet celebrity” balloons. Their colorful figures can be seen at the entrances of many large shopping malls. However, such beautiful balloons hide huge dangers! On December 2, 2017, a two-year-old girl in Dongguan, Guangdong was playing with this hydrogen balloon when her 7-year-old brother handed her a lighter. After the girl lit the lighter, the balloon exploded instantly, igniting her hair and causing second-degree burns on her face and right hand… This kind of hydrogen balloon is easy to explode when it encounters sparks or open flames. At the moment of explosion, LED lights and small wires are released Small parts such as these are likely to be swallowed by children. Moreover, once it explodes, melted balloon plastic liquid can also cause burns if it sticks to the skin. Dangerous Toy 2: Toothpick Crossbow In the first half of this year, a popular casual toy was circulated among primary school students. This is the \”toothpick crossbow\”. This toy looks small, but it has huge destructive power. Not only can it shoot through cardboard and balloons, but it can also pierce into watermelons and raw meat. If it is replaced with a steel needle, it can also be driven into gypsum board and shoot through plastic bottles. It can shoot out at speeds of up to Hundreds of kilometers. Once a child is shot in the eye, the consequences will be disastrous! In June 2017, a 10-year-old boy in Xinjiang was shot in the right eye by a toothpick crossbow played by a classmate. After several treatments, his vision could not be restored to above 1.0. Such dangerous toys can be purchased in many stationery stores next to schools. The People\’s Daily Weibo publicly criticized the toy, and Ma Yili also appealed to childrenWe should stay away from such toys. Although the relevant departments have conducted inspections, some e-commerce websites have changed their names and raised prices to sell them secretly, which is really difficult to prevent. For the safety of all children, parents please advise: Playing with toys is for pleasure, and never causes irreversible disasters because of stimulation. Dangerous Toy 3: Fidget Spinner A fidget spinner is a small toy that uses an axially symmetrical structure and can spin on your fingers. Many children like to play and find it very cool. Fidget spinners come in various shapes, and some have sharp shapes and sharp blades that are not suitable for children to play with. When the rotating top is brought close to the egg, the egg skin is easily cut. Children often like to run, jump and play. If they fall or touch someone else\’s skin while playing, they can easily get hurt. An 11-year-old child in Australia threw a fidget spinner into the air but failed to catch it. The top scraped the corner of his eye, leaving a scar and requiring him to shake his head to see what was in the corner of his eye. However, many parents still ignore the danger and buy this kind of toy for their children, saying that with this toy, their children will not play with their mobile phones much all day. Sometimes it\’s not that children have to play with a certain toy, but that parents like it, and it\’s helpless to think about it. As everyone knows, parents\’ short-term judgment of danger may very well put their children in danger. Dangerous Toy 4: Water Elf. Water Elf is a kind of small colorful beads. After being soaked in water, it turns into large beads. It is a decoration for many water tanks and flower pots. It is actually a kind of water-absorbent resin. The acrylonitrile or acrylate contained in it is toxic and is not suitable for children to come into contact with. However, many parents buy them as toys for their children. In June 2017, Qilu Children\’s Hospital of Shandong University received a 2-year-old boy with repeated vomiting and a belly as big as a drum. It turned out that the child accidentally ingested the \”Water Spirit\”, which absorbed water and swelled in the intestines, causing \”intestinal obstruction\”. If not treated as soon as possible, it may also cause intestinal perforation and necrosis. In July 2017, Nan Nan (pseudonym), a 9-year-old girl from Yan\’an, was playing with water beads when she rubbed her eyes with the hand that broke the beads. This resulted in scratches and infection of the eye lens. In order to save her eyeballs, she underwent several surgeries. Therefore, it is recommended that parents do not let their children play with water elves. If they come into contact with their skin, they should wash it off as soon as possible to avoid accidental swallowing by small children, which may have disastrous consequences. Dangerous Toy 5: Magnetic Steel Balls In November 2017, Kaifeng Children’s Hospital received a boy with abdominal pain and fever. After examination, it was discovered that the cause was that he had swallowed 4 magnetic steel balls. The magnetic force of the steel balls attracted each other and compressed the intestinal wall. Necrosis caused 7 intestinal perforations. It took doctors 240 minutes of surgery to save the 1-year-old and 4-month-old boy. The doctor said that this kind of colorful magnetic steel balls can easily cause lead poisoning and heavy metal poisoning, especially for children under 3 years old. They must not come into contact with such small particles. It’s not easy for children to grow up safely! Recalling \”The Story of the Editorial Department\”, Ge You said: \”As long as you are in your mother\’s womb, you may miscarry at any time. A puff of cigarette as a mother can turn you into a deformity… It took ten months to give birth to polio.\” , whooping cough, scarlet fever, encephalitis alsoWait for us at the front. When we cry, we choke, when we walk, we fall, when we touch the water, it becomes hot, when we touch the fire, something can knock us half to death…\” Being a parent is not easy either! Every day, I carry a worried little heart, Don\’t dare to relax at all. Sometimes danger may occur just by leaving your child for a minute. As the end of the year is approaching, there are still some dangers that are easy to occur. I would like to remind everyone: 1. The drawers and cabinets at home must be fixed to the wall. Children are very It is easy to open the drawers and step on the things on the top of the cabinet, which is dangerous. IKEA has recalled 17.3 million of these \”deadly cabinets\” worldwide. 2. When the weather is cold, many homes will use a small heater The surface temperature of the device can reach more than 160 degrees. It is said that \”it takes three seconds to ignite cotton\” and \”it takes five minutes to burn paper towels.\” Once a child touches it, it can easily cause burns. Moreover, many parents like to dry wet towels or clothes on it. , which can easily cause a fire. It is best to place the heater out of the reach of children. When using it, an adult must be watching over you. 3. Take your children to school in the morning. Do not drag your children to chase the bus or cross the road. , because the driver of a large vehicle has a large visual blind spot, and the child is small, it is easy to cause scratches or crushing. 4. Do not let children wear long scarves to sit behind bicycles or electric vehicles. Scarves can easily be Winch into the wheel, causing the child to fall off the car and be dragged, or be entangled and suffocated. Previously, a 10-year-old girl in Hebei was sitting behind an electric car, and the long scarf she was wearing was caught in the wheel, causing the little girl\’s spine to be broken , full body paralysis. 5. Do not let your child sit in a safety seat wearing a down jacket, otherwise it may be fatal! The fabric of the down jacket is smooth and not close-fitting. When the car brakes suddenly or there is a violent impact, the child will be like a \”golden cicada escaping its shell\”. Slip out of the down jacket and throw out the seat. Hunan Satellite TV experimentally verified this in a program. Parents can let their children take off their down jackets, put on their seat belts, and then cover them with their down jackets to keep them warm. 6. In addition to protecting yourself As a parent, you should also try your best to protect other people\’s children. Sometimes when you protect others, you are protecting yourself. In winter, the roads are slippery. When driving, if there is an electric car or bicycle with children in front of you, be sure to keep a certain distance, otherwise once If the car in front slips, it is easy to fail to brake in time, causing injury. Before getting out of the car and opening the door, be sure to use the reflector to check whether there are pedestrians behind, or gently push the door to confirm that there are no pedestrians before fully opening it, otherwise it is easy to cause an unexpected collision. .Children’s safety is no small matter. In China, nearly 50,000 children aged 1-14 lose their lives due to accidental injuries every year. Falls from heights, burns, electric shocks, sharp injuries, drowning, poisoning, and traffic accidents are the most common of children are injured accidentally. Improper protection by parents and insufficient awareness of dangers by children are the main reasons for children being injured by accidents. Safety education is the first lesson that parents need to teach their children, so that children understand what dangers are and how to Avoid danger. As parents, sometimes we need to teach ourselves this lesson. The most beautiful language in the world is \”a false alarm.\” Fortunately, you are still beside me safely.
