00:00They say that the children are the happiest during Christmas
00:04because they are the ones who receive Christmas gifts during the holiday season.
00:09And of course, toys are what they usually receive as gifts.
00:13But what we don't know is that toys can be dangerous to children
00:18if we don't examine them properly.
00:21That's why this Wednesday, here at CineDoc,
00:23we will be given tips on how to choose a safe toy.
00:28We will be joined by Doc V. Diaz from the Department of Health.
00:42Good morning, KRSP!
00:44I am Doc V. Diaz from the Department of Health.
00:48Today, we will find out what CineDoc and experts say
00:54when it comes to various topics related to health.
00:58During the holiday season,
01:00many of us go to toys as gifts to our children,
01:04to our mothers, to our nieces, or to our children.
01:11That's why it's important for us to be careful when choosing toys
01:17so that it's safe for our children.
01:24We will be joined by Aileen Lucero,
01:29the National Coordinator of the EcoWaste Coalition.
01:33Good morning, Ma'am Aileen!
01:35Welcome to CineDoc, Rise and Shine Philippines!
01:40Good morning, Doc!
01:42To everyone watching, Rise and Shine Philippines!
01:45Ma'am, you brought a lot of props.
01:49I'm sure everyone will learn.
01:51What are the common injuries that children get from toys?
01:58According to the EcoWaste Coalition,
02:01when there are toys, there is a choking hazard.
02:05I put some toys here.
02:10A choking hazard is when there are small parts
02:16that are being assembled.
02:18That's a common injury.
02:22Eye injury hazard is when there are small toys
02:28that hit the eyes.
02:31That's what we call eye injury.
02:34Laceration is when there are small parts that hit the eyes.
02:41We have a lot of small parts.
02:48Strangulation is when there are many parts.
02:54I have a list here.
02:58Strangulation hazard is when the toy is too long.
03:03The child can get tied up.
03:07That's an accident.
03:09These are the common injuries we see,
03:12aside from the chemical hazard.
03:16There are a lot of food-like.
03:18For example, this is food-like.
03:21Food-like toys.
03:23For example, this is a cooking toy.
03:28It has a chemical hazard.
03:32What kind of chemical is it?
03:35It's made of plastic.
03:37It has phthalates.
03:39What are the effects of phthalates on the body?
03:43Phthalates are accumulative.
03:48It's endocrine-disrupting.
03:50It affects the reproductive organs.
03:53When it comes to lead,
03:57it can be neurotoxic.
04:00It hits the brain.
04:03These are the common injuries.
04:07Our mothers see these toys.
04:14It's a beautiful toy.
04:16It's cheap.
04:17It's enjoyable.
04:19But the hazard is not visible.
04:21That's what causes accidents.
04:25It's very clear.
04:27We thought it was a beautiful toy.
04:31But it has a lot of chemicals.
04:34Ma'am said it accumulates slowly.
04:38We don't know if it has symptoms
04:41of neurologic and endocrine.
04:44Symptoms of neurologic and endocrine
04:47are dizziness, vomiting,
04:50skin allergies, autoimmune.
04:54We thought it was autoimmune.
04:56It has skin diseases.
05:00It's very clear.
05:02Ma'am Aileen brought a lot of props.
05:04We saw the prohibitions.
05:06Ma'am Aileen, do you have any tips or guidelines
05:10to share with our RRSP
05:13on how to choose the right toys?
05:16What we saw earlier was not right.
05:19What is the right choice of toys for children?
05:24For our RRSP,
05:26the right choice of toys is
05:28to see if it is registered with the FDA.
05:32It means that there is a proper label.
05:35Where can we see the label?
05:37It should be on the package.
05:40You will understand.
05:42This is not right.
05:45We can't read the label.
05:48Yes.
05:49We can't read it.
05:51You should read it.
05:53It has an FDA registration.
05:55Another good thing we can use
05:59is to see if it fits the age of the children
06:03that we will give as a gift.
06:05As you can see,
06:07there is always a label
06:09that says 3+, 4+.
06:11That is the age.
06:13It means that the age of the children
06:15that we will give as a gift
06:17should match the age of the children.
06:19Later on,
06:21you can give a 2-year-old
06:23a toy that is 4+.
06:28It should be age appropriate.
06:32Of course,
06:34it should not have a 12-inch stick.
06:38It should not have small parts
06:42like button batteries.
06:44This is what our parents should look at.
06:47It should not have a chemical smell.
06:50It should not have a chemical smell.
06:52We will look at it when we buy
06:54if there is an FDA,
06:56Bureau of Food and Drugs,
06:58that says it is approved by the FDA.
07:02This is what we got from Ma'am Aileen.
07:06Ma'am Aileen,
07:08what are the toys
07:10that you recommend
07:12that are safe and suitable
07:14to give as a gift to children?
07:16For the health and safety
07:18of the children
07:20that we will give as a gift,
07:22of course,
07:24it should be age appropriate.
07:26We should choose toys
07:28that are safe
07:30and that do not have small parts.
07:32It should not have a battery
07:34that can be tested.
07:36It should not have chemicals
07:38that can be contaminated.
07:40For example,
07:42it should not have a chemical smell.
07:44It should not have a chemical smell.
07:46We also have some parents
07:48who give school supplies
07:50to their children.
07:52They give them
07:54school supplies
07:56for their school.
07:58Sometimes,
08:00it is not necessary
08:02to give toys.
08:04There are some who give clothes
08:06or food.
08:08There are many choices
08:10that our children
08:12can choose
08:14not only toys.
08:18It is better
08:20to have a wish list
08:22for their children
08:24not just toys.
08:26They can choose clothes
08:28or school supplies.
08:30That is our tip
08:32for age appropriate.
08:34We have learned a lot from you.
08:36What is your message
08:38or reminder
08:40to our RSP?
08:42Now that it is Christmas season,
08:44the Eco Waste Coalition
08:46is reminding
08:48our RSP
08:50to choose
08:52your toys

09:02to ask
