It really depends on the type of glue you're using. Some adhesives can emit harmful fumes, so it’s important to know which one you're dealing with. If you give us more details about the glue, we might be able to help with specific concerns.

Always check the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for any glue you’re considering. It’ll have all the information you need about toxicity and any precautions to take. You can find these by looking up the product name along with "MSDS" for more detailed safety info.

Just a heads up, some common glues like Elmer's School Glue are completely safe for kids. But like others mentioned, you really need to check the specific type of glue to be totally sure.
