How many kids choke to death each year?

In the United States, approximately 100 to 150 children under the age of 14 die from choking each year. The majority of these incidents involve young children, particularly toddlers, who are at higher risk due to their tendency to explore objects by putting them in their mouths. Common choking hazards include food items, small toys, and household objects. Efforts to raise awareness and promote safety can help reduce these tragic incidents.
