SAFE

Non-Toxic Rattles are finished with organic linseed oil which is recommended for cutting boards and other kitchen items. Organic linseed oil applied to wood provides a non-toxic finish on a non-toxic material. Wooden toys are less toxic than plastic toys.
Sanitary Research on wooden and plastic cutting boards has shown that wood is as safe as plastic. Wood is as easily cleaned as plastic and has been shown to harbor less bacteria. Read this abstract for more information.
Choke-free Rattles meet all federal anti-choking guidelines.
