NASSAU, BAHAMAS – Christmas is only nine days away and there will be lots of gift giving. Especially for the little ones. But, have you ever wondered which toys are safe and which are not?
A local pediatrician shares the dangers of some toys and says parents should be on high alert as they shop this holiday season.
