🔴 Safeguarding Alert 🔴

Viral Online Trend Causing Severe Burns to Children

A new trend has emerged suggesting that children and young people should microwave squishy silicone toys. After seeing online videos claiming this makes the toys softer and more pliable, when squeezed afterwards it results in severe burns.

We’re encouraging parents, carers, and staff to be aware of this trend and talk to young people about the risks of following "trends" seen online.

Don't search and push the algorithms. Read the information and guidance you need in the Safer Schools App and on our website.
