[quote=Anonymous]As a parent of a now-grown child with severe nut allergies, you all can stop lecturing OP that the world has nuts in it. She knows. Please. She said clearly that she’s specifically worried about the residue on the equipment. OP, my advice would be to definitely check with your child’s doctor. I was worried about kids eating nuts around mine when my kid was little but the doctor reassured us that skin contact in that scenario (playgrounds, doorknobs, handrails, displays in museum etc) was unlikely to cause an anaphylactic reaction based on my child’s testing. If you find that surface trace amounts cause your child to react, then you can plan accordingly. It definitely helped us feel more comfortable in these types of scenarios. Most people are kind and understanding but some can be judgmental and combative (like some of the people on this thread) which is annoying. [/quote]
