This toy poses a serious risk of :- choking, because small parts (snail’s horn) can be easily detached and they fit entirely within the small parts cylinder. Children may put these parts into their mouth and choke,- suffocation, because the free length of the cord (775 mm) exceeds the maximum allowed limit of 220 mm when stretched by a force of (25 ± 2) N. Cords which are too long can be wound around the neck and constitute a strangulation hazard. This toy does not comply with the Toys Directive and the relevant European standard EN-71.
