The source adds the following information:
"A children’s product is defined as any product designed or intended
for the care of or use by children under age 14. KID has expanded
this definition to include other products that pose risks specifically
to children such as window blinds (none recalled this year) and
dressers. Children’s products were further categorized for this report
by the type of product (clothing, furniture, kitchenware, nursery,
outdoor & sports, and toys)."
