Belle the Cow - Teething Rattle

The sound element is a securely sewn HIPS plastic casing filled with GPPS beads, and the toy line is tested and certified to ASTM F963 and EN 71. That testing covers the range as a whole rather than being set out for this rattle, and the US infant-rattle rule on minimum size and non-separation is not named anywhere. We queried the CPSC recall register and found nothing filed against this brand's rattles — the single record is a 2013 children's loungewear flammability recall.

The sound element is a rigid HIPS plastic casing holding GPPS beads, securely sewn into the fabric body, which is the containment this criterion cares about. The disclosure stops there: nothing covers seam or stitch strength over months of chewing and washing, and nothing covers the sound level at arm's length.

Every material a baby's mouth reaches is named: a 100% GOTS certified organic cotton shell coloured with a GOTS certified low-impact azo-free dye, organic cotton and corn fibre fill, and a PVC-free, BPA-free, phthalate-free rattle built from a lead-free HIPS casing with GPPS beads. The eyes, nose and mouth are embroidered, so there is no painted or glued surface to chip. No lab testing of the finished rattle for lead or phthalates is published.

All of these toys are mandatorily tested and carry ASTM F963 and EN 71 safety certification, and meet governmental safety standards in the US, Canada, Australia and Europe. The international distributor that carries the line has every product it supplies laboratory tested to AS/NZS 8124, EN 71 or ASTM standards. The Children's Product Certificate and the testing laboratory for this rattle are not published.

This rattle is all-fabric at 4 x 6 inches, with the eyes, nose and mouth embroidered rather than applied as plastic parts and the rattle insert securely sewn inside, so there are no attached small parts to shed. Sibling rattles in the same line are graded 0 months and up where they are sold, but no age grade and no small-parts statement appear with Boxer the Dog itself.

We queried the full CPSC recall corpus — 9,944 records spanning 1973 to August 2026 — and found a single entry for this brand: a 2013 recall of children's loungewear for violating the federal flammability standard. That was apparel rather than toys, thirteen years ago, and nothing has been filed since against the plush or doll lines.

The rattle is made of 100% GOTS certified organic cotton and coloured with a GOTS certified low-impact, azo-free dye, with GOTS asserted for the finished plush item rather than only for a fibre supplier. A nontoxic-product index carries the same GOTS organic cotton, corn-fibre fill and no-synthetic-coating description for a sibling rattle in this line. No licence or certificate code is published anywhere for these toys.

Materials are disclosed component by component — GOTS organic cotton shell, organic cotton and corn fibre fill, and a HIPS plastic rattle casing with GPPS beads — and the products are designed in San Francisco and manufactured in China. The factory or supplier name and any warranty terms are not published.
