Because our products are often designed for children with unique developmental needs, we often recommend adult supervision or adult guidance when using each product. Still, we know that every child is unique—that is exactly why we do what we do. When using our products, remember that you—as the
caregiver—know your child best.

Please follow our safety recommendations, and provide additional supervision as needed for your child.
Consider several factors as you use your best judgment to determine whether your child needs a closer level of supervision when using a given product.
Think about:
- The child’s developmental age
- The child’s unique developmental needs
- The way the child uses similar products
- The strength of the child
- How well the child follows your directions
- The predictability of the child’s behavior
- Whether the child has broken, swallowed or otherwise misused objects in the past
- The behaviors the child typically exhibits (e.g. chewing) and how they may engage with this product
