Can Your Kids Still Use The Recalled Kidoozie Play Tents If These Look Alright?

No. We don’t recommend letting your children play with the recalled play tents until you get the replacement from Epoch Everlasting Play.

While your child’s play tent might look alright, it has flammability and burn risk (if included in the recall). It’s best to keep it away from their reach while you wait for the toy company’s response.

Safety With Toys

  • Always make sure to check for toy recalls and other safety alerts before choosing your children’s toys.
  • Stay updated about recalled toys for products you already have at home.
  • Choose age-appropriate toys because these follow certain safety regulations for their age. For example, toys for children younger than three years old are designed to be free from choking risks.
  • It’s also best to check for possible suffocation, laceration, cut, or other injury risks.
  • Toys should also be made of non-toxic, non-hazardous materials to keep your children safe.

Always check to see if the toys are free from:

  • BPA (bisphenol-A)
  • BPS or bisphenol-S
  • PVC (polyvinyl chloride)
  • Phthalates
  • Cadmium, lead, and other heavy metals
  • Formaldehyde polystyrene or styrofoam
  • Carcinogenic dyes (e.g., AZO dyes)
  • Flame retardant chemicals, including PBDEs (polybrominated diphenyl ethers), OPFRs (organophosphate flame retardants), TDCPP or tris(1,3-dichloro-2-propyl)phosphate, HBCD (hexabromocyclododecane), TBBPA (tetrabromobisphenol A), and TCEP or tris(2-chloroethyl)phosphate
