BETTER CHOICES
Natural rubber toys are made from the sap (latex) of a rubber tree. Natural rubber doesn’t contain phthalates or other endocrine disrupting chemicals that may be harmful to health.
If you or your child is allergic to natural rubber latex, then silicone-based toys might be a good alternative. Silicone has some characteristics of plastic but fewer chemicals that off gas.
