Coffee With Jeff #165: Dangerous Toys


Listen Later

Toys! Almost everyone loves toys. Toys can be fun, exciting, and even educational. Sometimes, however, manufacturers create toys that pose a risk to the kids they are intended for. Some of these toys can cause injury, others can result in death.

With the holiday season upon us, I present six toys that had issues when it comes to child safety on the 165th episode of Sunday Morning Coffee with Jeff.
