Garage Sale Safety

Ah, garage sale season! There's no better place to find a bargain but cheap doesn't always equal safe.

 

There are many children's products being sold in garage sales, classified ads, and new and used stores that are unsafe. This includes ALL walkers and some cribs, car seats, baby gates, playpens, strollers, highchairs, sleepwear and clothing.

 

Here are some resources that will help you decide if a second hand item is safe or not.
