Hazard

The small air valve can easily come off. A small child could put it in the mouth and choke on it. The bridles, which can also come off easily, may form a large flat loop. It is possible for a child to get caught in the loop while playing and this may cause strangulation. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
