RS ISO/TR 8124-8: 2024
Safety of toys — Part 8: Age determination — First age grade for the appropriate play of toys

Abstract

This document provides an indication of the lowest age at which children start playing with toys in specific
toy sub-categories. It is primarily directed to manufacturers and agencies that evaluate the compliance of
toys with safety standards.
This document can be used as a reference to determine the appropriateness of toys by earliest age, for use
by distributors, institutions and organizations involved with child play, as well as by paediatric institutions,
teachers, other professionals that use toys in their routine activities, and consumers.
The age at which children develop different abilities is unique for each individual child. This document
illustrates the age ranges during which a typical child has developed certain abilities.
Although age grading has safety implications, this document is not intended to address specific safety
requirements. Specific safety requirements for toys (e.g. restriction of the presence of small parts and small
balls in toys intended for certain age groups, due to the choking hazard) can be found in the ISO 8124 series
and in other regional toy safety standards and regulations.
