Hazard

The small electronic music component in one of the toy birds can be easily accessed by opening the Velcro fastening. A child may put it in the mouth and choke. 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 the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
