Maude the Kitty - Pacifier Buddy

The rattle is made without BPA or phthalates, and the crinkle paper is also . However, the attachment method is not described as securely sewn, and no explicit age guidance for clip use is provided, which keeps the score at the lower end of the Good range.

This represents 30% of the total score.

The shell is 100% organic cotton knit and made with OEKO-TEX 100 certified dyes, addressing both fiber origin and dye safety. This earns a Good score; it falls just short of Excellent because the organic fiber is not paired with a full GOTS certification for the fabric itself — only OEKO-TEX dye certification is noted.

This represents 26% of the total score.

The fill is organic, sustainable corn husk fiber, a plant-based material that is well-suited for infant products.

This represents 18% of the total score.

The product is clearly designed as an infant pacifier buddy, but no specific age range or pacifier compatibility guidance — such as compatible brands or sizes — is provided. Parents are left without guidance on fit or appropriate age of use.

This represents 16% of the total score.

No care or washing instructions are provided, which is a gap for a product in daily infant use. Parents would benefit from knowing whether machine washing is safe and at what cycle.

This represents 10% of the total score.
