Safety first: how to choose the safest toys?

• Check the materials: Opt for toys made from safe, non-toxic materials. For example, wooden climbing frames should be treated with safe, non-toxic paint and coatings.
• Pay attention to construction: Toys should be sturdy and well-constructed. Check for sharp edges or small, loose parts that could pose a choking hazard.
• Certifications and standards: Look for toys that meet safety standards and certifications such as the CE marking, indicating that the product meets European safety standards.
• Age appropriateness: Ensure the toys are suitable for your children's age. Toys that are too advanced or too simple can be dangerous.
• Regular maintenance: Regularly check toys for wear and damage. Repair or replace damaged parts immediately to prevent accidents.
• Safety accessories: Use safety accessories such as fall mats under climbing frames and swings to reduce the impact of falls.
• Placement in the garden: Ensure climbing frames are placed in a safe spot in the garden, away from hard surfaces like concrete and obstacles like trees and fences.
