Nottingham City Council’s Trading Standards team are asking Nottingham residents to be careful when buying presents for children:
-
Look for the CE or UKCA mark: These symbols on the label or box mean the manufacturer has assessed the toy for safety
-
Button-batteries can kill: Check they are screwed in firmly and safely before giving to a child
-
Check age restrictions: Toys must be clearly marked with age restrictions - always follow them, they’re there for a reason
