"Balloons can be a deadly choking hazard for small children. If a toddler bites a balloon and a piece of it flings into the back of their throat, there’s nothing you can do to save them. No back blows or Heimlich maneuvers will help because it gets stuck in their throat like glue. All you can do is helplessly watch as they choke to death. It’s this reason that I make sure ALL balloons are kept out of reach of my 2 year old."
