DRAWSTRINGS and tog-
gles on children’s clothing
are known to cause
strangulation. Since 1989,
there have been five reports
of children who died when a
drawstring from their clo-
thing became caught on
playground equipment or a
fence.

Since the U.S. and Britain
have banned the sale of chil-
‘dren’s clothing with .draw-
sirings from the hoods and
necks of children’s clothing,
there have been no further
deaths from  drawstring-
related injuries.

Other problems with
drawstring is that they can
get caught in vehicle doors,
slides, sleds, and fences
where the risk of slangula-
tion is high. Toggles on
drawstrings have also been
‘chewed and inhaled by chil- |
-dren causing choking.

Scarves and toques with
‘long tails can also be haz-
.ardous because they can get
‘caught and cause strangula-
‘tion for both adults and chil-
‘dren. If they are worn, they
‘must be tucked into coats
‘and snow suits,

- Avoid wearing them
‘around playground equtip-
‘ment, when using power
‘tools, or around mechanical
‘equipment such as ski lifts
‘and snowmobiles.

: Now that we are into the
‘winter season and wearing
-coats with hoods, please
‘remove the  drawstrings
‘from children’s hoods and
necks of clothing. Strings
‘should not be used to keep

depend on it.
