Low-Cost No-Cost Tips to Prevent Chemical and Heavy Metal Exposures When Selecting Toys

Children are uniquely vulnerable to environmental hazards due to their developing bodies and exploratory behaviors, like mouthing objects. Plastic and metal toys can contain harmful chemicals, which can lead to long-term health impacts. This webinar introduces attendees to the Children’s Environmental Health Network’s Eco-Healthy Child Care® (EHCC) program. EHCC promotes practical, low-cost strategies to create safer child care environments. A specific emphasis on selecting safer toys is offered during this webinar.
