In its crusade against dangerous and potentially fatal children’s toys, World Against Toys Causing Harm, or W.A.T.CH., has released its annual list of the worst toys for the holiday season.

The report, which is in its forty-third year, profiles in detail 10 toys that the American non-profit organization deemed to be particularly harmful after combing through a toy industry that it claims generates approximately $22 billion in annual sales in the U.S. alone.

Seven of the toys on the list have already been profiled by Product Design & Development. The purpose of this story is to explore the three remaining toys: “’Bud’ Skipit’s Wheely Cute Pull Along,” “Foam Dart Gun,” and “Stats 38’’ Quick Folding Trampoline.”

Developed and sold by Toys “R” Us, and also sold on Ebay, the Stats Toys miniature trampoline is a potential hazard for head, neck, and bodily injuries, according to W.A.T.C.H. To the surprise of W.A.T.C.H., the toy’s packaging reads: “Landing on the head or neck can cause serious injury, paralysis, or death, even when landing in the middle of the bed.”

 

The instructions for the trampoline suggest that the product should be used by children 6 years or older while they are under the watch of an adult. However, the photo displayed on the packaging contradicts that suggestion, as a child is shown using the product without the visible presence of an adult.

“The many hazards associated with the trampoline use should make it apparent to manufacturers and retailers that such equipment should not be sold as a playtime activity for young children,” W.A.T.C.H. said.

Designed for babies six months old and above, “Bud,” Bunnies By the Bay’s pull-along toy, has been under a bit of heat in 2015. A number of the toys were recalled in June 2015 due to its hub caps, which are susceptible to breaking off, relegating the part to a potential choking hazard.

Unlike the other toys, W.A.T.C.H.’s rationale for placing GD.Jiefeng Toys’ faux gun on the list is due the message the toy sends to children.

“In today’s world, there is no excuse for outfitting children with realistic toy weapons designed to produce potentially dangerous and unnecessary thrills,” W.A.T.C.H. explained. “Existing regulations addressing the hazards associated with such ‘toys’ are inadequate. Detailed replicas have resulted in a number of death through the years and should never be sold as toys.”
