A very Merry Christmas from all of us at CPSC! We hope you have a wonderful (and safe) holiday!

Take it slow on your new e-bike/e-scooter/hoverboard and stand by your pan!

Christmas Eve.
A guy named Ted on an ATV. He is leading Santa's sleigh across the sky with the moon in the background. The text reads: T'was the night before Christmas and over the moon was Ted, raging through the night sky, leading Santa's sleigh. He was sure glad he wore the proper gear although honestly he shouldn't have done this. This is definitely not something ATVs are designed to do. Don't lose bets to reindeer, folks. Never again with this one. This is just foolish. Dash away all, Ted!

Christmas Eve Eve
A plate of holiday cookies that look like gingerbread people. The text on each reads: Stand by your pan. Water your tree. Don't plug your space heater into a power strip, and the last cookie, very concerningly reads, we're alive.

Also, we went with ham because it is the most hilarious holiday dish and we unfortunately cannot take questions at this time.

Cook safe this holiday season! For the ham!
A fire truck exploding out of a well-cooked holiday ham. The text reads: Honey, there's something wrong with the ham! Yeah! It's the fire department! Stand by your pan this holiday season. Unattended cooking is the number one cause of home fires.

Also, notice how fire does not care what's in its path it will just burn down an entire home. Imagine this happening while you are asleep. By the time you smell smoke it may be too late to escape. Make sure your smoke alarms are working.

It's the last few days before Christmas. Buy safe gifts for kids!
A glowing purple scorpion wearing a Santa hat jumping out of a present box. The text reads: Surprise! The enchanted scorpion of your dreams! It's the perfect gift for you - a normal person who understands the ramifications and complexities of owning an enchanted scorpion. Adults can make informed decisions about the things they own. Kids need help. Only buy safe gifts for kids this holiday season.

You might be thinking, "CPSC, does a dry Christmas tree really burn that much faster than a well-watered tree?"

Friend, let's find out together by watching this PSA.

Still plenty of time to buy safe gifts for kids!
A young girl in a Santa hat standing in front of a Christmas tree. She is holding a chainsaw with a worried expression on her face. The text reads: Don't shop desperate this holiday season. Buy age-appropriate gifts for kids. Never gift toys with small parts to children under 3.
