Safety Information

As parents and caregivers, providing a safe and stimulating environment for your child is essential. That’s why we put so much time, care and attention into selecting materials and developing our products, from the very first idea through to rigorous testing. 

The Original PlayTRAY™ and our sensory play accessories are designed to encourage creativity, exploration, learning and development, while giving you confidence that safety has been carefully considered every step of the way. 

Product Safety

  • The PlayTRAY is made from BPA-free, phthalate-free, FDA & LFGB food-safe ABS plastic.
  •  Our sensory play accessories are crafted from premium-quality, 100% FDA food-grade silicone, soft and safe for children and free from BPA, PVC and phthalates.
  • Every Inspire My Play product is rigorously tested to meet the relevant toy safety and quality standards for the markets we sell to, including the UK, EU, USA, Australia and Canada.
  • These standards cover mechanical and physical safety, flammability, chemical safety and restrictions on heavy metals and other harmful substances.

Understanding Age Ratings

The age rating shown on our packaging and product pages, refers to the safety age of the product, not your child’s developmental level or ability. These age recommendations are based on factors such as the size, design and characteristics of the product and help indicate the age at which it can be used safely when following the recommended guidance.

Every child develops at their own pace, so a child may be capable of enjoying certain types of play before or after the age shown. However, the safety age should always be followed, regardless of your child’s individual abilities or developmental stage.

Safe Play Guidelines

  1. Supervise play at all times. Do not leave your child unattended while using the PlayTRAY.
  2. Choose age-appropriate contents. Avoid items that are too small or contain parts that could pose a choking hazard.
  3. Check for any allergies. Ensure any materials or substances placed in the tray are safe for your child.
  4. Avoid sharp objects. These can be dangerous and can cause injury.
  5. Manage mouthing risks. Always follow the recommended age rating on the product packaging or our product pages, particularly for children who are still mouthing objects. 
  6. Supervise water play. Never leave children unattended near water. 
  7. Clean after use. We recommend washing the PlayTRAY and its contents after use to prevent the growth of bacteria, mould, or other harmful microorganisms. Our PlayTRAY, play sets and silicone tools are dishwasher safe up to 60°C/140°F, or can be cleaned using hot, soapy water.
  8. Avoid toxic materials. Do not use paints, dyes or chemicals that could be harmful.
  9. Adjust for developmental stages. Children develop at different rates so adapt activities and materials accordingly.
  10. Monitor temperature. Be mindful of the temperature of the contents in the PlayTRAY, especially if your child is still mouthing.
  11. Encourage creative, safe exploration. Support your children in having fun while staying safe.

We’re committed to providing safe, durable and age-appropriate products. However, the safety of your child is ultimately the responsibility of the parent or caregiver. Always supervise play, use the products responsibly and follow the above safety guidelines.  

In no event shall Inspire My Play Ltd be liable for any injuries or damages resulting from the use of our products. By purchasing and using our products, you acknowledge that you have read and understood these guidelines and assume all associated risks.
