Hazard

Small plastic parts (squeaking element) may easily detach from the toy. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke on them. Furthermore, the geometric shapes of the toys protrude too much. A child could easily insert the toys in the mouth, risking to block the air ways. Also, the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. If a child plays with the packaging, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose, causing the child to suffocate. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and with the European standard EN 71-1.

Measures taken
