To sell toys for children under 12 years of age on Amazon U.S, the following federal safety standards must be met:

Eco-friendly toys are better for the environment and better for babies. Eco-toys are initially non-toxic and put less strain on the environment. As babies and young children tend to put everything in their mouths, this is a safe toy choice you will be grateful for every time you see your child play.

Still, when you purchase toys online and don’t know the brand or seller, thorough research is advisable to determine whether the (eco) product is genuine and eco-friendly.

Read the review and research the brand or seller’s reputation; when a product is cheap, do double research to ensure no shortcuts are made.
