This document is intended to be used in conjunction with the standards for safety of toys and gives guidelines for deciding which toys are intended for children under 36 months of age and which toys are not intended for such children.
The document is a broad guideline and further study is required to determine whether a particular toy is appropriate for a given age.
In addition, this document gives clarification on items that are not considered as toys.
Explanation of stages of the development of children is given in Annex A together with background information and considerations concerning safety of toys.
NOTE: Only toys that on account of their function, dimensions, characteristics, properties or other cogent grounds are manifestly unsuitable for children under 36 months do not require a warning in the context of annex IV.1 of the Toy Safety Directive.
