Description
Toy horse; multi-coloured (purple, orange, red, yellow, green, blue) textile soft head and legs; hard plastic body and hooves. Hooves are rattles containing small plastic shapes; the tops of the hooves are transparent plastic. When the horse’s saddle is pressed, the toy ‘neighs’. Packaging: product is mounted on cardboard; instructions and information are on the back of the packaging. Product is approximately 16 cm tall, although it cannot stand up because the legs are soft textile, too flimsy to support the plastic body. Toy is for children of 6 months and older.
Risk
This toy poses a serious risk of cuts because a piece of wire may protrude from the head of the toy, causing a risk of cuts and abrasions. This toy does not comply with the Toys Directive and with the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
