"Children's Kitchenware" is not a toy

  From September this year, labor class will officially become an independent course in primary and secondary schools.

As soon as the news came out, many labor education products such as "children's kitchen utensils" became popular in the market, and some merchants marked the words "children's toys, real version of cooking utensils".

At present, there is no unified standard for "children's kitchenware" in my country. It should be ensured that "children's kitchenware" is a kitchenware rather than a toy, so as to avoid it becoming a "safety killer" that threatens health.

  Introduce exclusive standards

  Although "children's kitchen utensils" are like "children's toys", they are still kitchen utensils according to their performance, and the safety requirements are not less.

It is recommended that relevant departments formulate exclusive standards for children's kitchen utensils in terms of product materials, usage methods, product packaging, etc., so that manufacturers can have evidence to rely on, so that children and parents can use them at ease.

  must be strictly tested

  Market supervision and other relevant departments must establish a unified supervision system for production and sales, introduce third-party evaluation agencies or national professional testing agencies, strictly control the safety and quality of "children's kitchen utensils", and inform consumers of materials and testing information in a timely manner. Qualified products will not be listed and publicized to the public, and illegal businesses will be dealt with according to law.

  undertake social responsibility

  The establishment of labor classes aims to improve students' understanding of the meaning of labor through labor education and practice, master some simple labor knowledge and skills, and develop basic self-care ability.

The popular "children's kitchen utensils" are essentially children's "toys" under the banner of educational products for profit, and their safety is doubtful. Manufacturers and merchants cannot use "toys" to prevaricate, evade supervision and social responsibilities. Stop production or take off shelves.

  Implement kitchen standard

  In view of my country's dining habits, it is inevitable to use dangerous items such as knives, scissors, fire, oil, and electricity in cooking. Children's minds are immature and their muscles are not fully developed, so "children's tableware" must be safe and reliable. Avoid unnecessary harm.

In the selection of materials, the national standards for kitchenware manufacturing should be implemented and managed according to the manufacturing standards for regular kitchenware.

  Strengthen safety education

  Kitchen utensils can have a reduced version, and food safety cannot be shrunk.

Whether it is for adults to cook for children, or for children to learn to cook by themselves, the safety of kitchen utensils and food hygiene must be given equal attention and are indispensable.

Relevant safety education must come first before imparting cooking skills to children.

The market supervision department should strengthen the management of the kitchenware and stove market, businesses should operate in accordance with the law, parents should choose carefully, and must not blindly follow the trend.
