Safety Notes

1. Age Appropriateness

   • Recommended for toddlers ages 1 to 5 years.

   • It’s designed with features that are suitable for very young kids (e.g., large buttons, push/pull handle).

2. Choking / Small Parts

   • The bus comes with 4 Little People character figures.

   • While the parts are designed for toddlers, supervision is still important, especially with the figures.

3. Mechanical / Moving Parts

   • The bus has a manual door, flip-out stop sign, and a wheelchair ramp.

   • Because of these movable parts, ensure kids use them safely (e.g., avoid pinching fingers).

4. Electrical / Battery Safety

   • The toy uses 2 × AA batteries (zinc or alkaline, depending on the listing).

   • As with all battery-powered toys:

     • Use the correct type of batteries.

     • Insert them properly (polarity).

     • Do not mix old and new batteries (or different types).

     • Remove batteries when not in use for a long time to avoid leakage.

5. Learning / Sound Volume

   • The bus has 3 Smart Stages levels (learning content, sounds, songs).

   • While not explicitly a “safety hazard,” parents might want to monitor volume to protect young children’s hearing.

6. Material Safety (Toxicity Concerns)

   • According to Target’s listing, Fisher-Price states: “Safety is our top priority … We set a standard that polycarbonate cannot be used in any product that is intended to be mouthed or touch food or made for a child under 3.”

   • This suggests that the bus avoids some higher-risk plastics.

   • There are broader concerns about toxic chemicals in toys (e.g., lead or phthalates), but no specific recall seems to target this exact model recently. (Always good to check for up-to-date recalls in your region.)

Material Used

• Main body: Made of plastic. Several sources (Target, Fisher-Price) list “Material: Plastic” for the bus.

• Figures: Also made of plastic (Little People figures are typically molded plastic).

• Battery compartment / electronics: Contains standard plastic housing plus electronic components (circuit board, speaker, LEDs, etc.) — common for musical learning toys.

• Handle: The pull-handle (stored underneath) is also plastic.

• Finish / Paint: While specific plastic types (e.g., ABS, PVC) are not publicly detailed, Fisher-Price’s safety note (no polycarbonate for children under 3) suggests they choose safer plastic materials for this toy.
