Group lists choking hazard toys and age labeling concerns
An advocacy group at a Frederick County Health Department briefing called for warning labels on toys that could pose choking risks and outlined examples. MaryPIRG cited blocks from Holiday Industries and several toy lines as failing to meet age labeling and choking standards. They urged parents to use caution, avoid small parts, and note that some items barely meet federal choking standards.
