This holiday season, keep your celebrations joyful and safe!

🧸 Watch out for lead in older toys — especially those from garage sales, thrift shops, or passed down by family. Toys made in the U.S. before 1978 (wooden and plastic) may contain lead‑based paint.

🔎 Check the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission for recalls: https://www.cpsc.gov/Recalls to view any toy or product recalls.
