BPA and Phthalate Free Baby Toys

General Guidelines

A database of non-toxic toys can be found at HealthyToys.org, which has a searchable database of over 1,200 toys.

Manufacturers committed to safe, PVC-free toys include Brio, Chicco, Early Start, First Years, Ikea, Lamaze Infant Development, Lego, Little Tykes, Playmobil, Primetime Playthings, Ravensburger, Sassy and Tiny Love.

Small companies include Beyond-learning.com, Bioviva.com/us, Crispina.com, Kenanausa.com, Naturalplay.com, Novanatural.com, Oompa.com, Playstoretoys.com, and Treeblocks.com.

But generally, the best guideline is to buy things made from natural materials:

• Purchase toys made of solid wood (either unfinished or with a non-toxic finish).
• Purchase toys made of organic cotton, hemp or wool.
