What should you give as a New Year’s present?
Armenians usually give toys, clothes and Christmas tree decorations as gifts for the holidays.
How should you choose what to buy to not hurt your loved ones?
International experts say every fifth toy or dress can seriously harm one's health.
Armenia imports mainly cheap, low-quality and ecologically unclean Christmas tree toys, soft dolls, Santa Claus hats, as well as many decorations and other accessories from China and Turkey, especially during these days.
For instance, never buy Christmas tree toys that are faded or have been glued with poisonous glue.
Choose toys very carefully. For instance, there are shiny Chinese balls and decorations that burn in an instant. Experts assure that glass toys are the most dangerous.
Before buying anything for children and relatives, stop for a moment and think of what you're buying them. Are we really ready to purchase anything just to make a child happy for an instant, or will we go ahead and buy whatever is costly? It's your choice.
