BS PD CEN ISO/TR 8124-8:2016 provides guidelines for the determination of the lowest age at which childrenstart playing with toys in specific toy sub-categories and is primarily directed to manufacturers andagencies that evaluate the compliance of toys with safety standards.

This Technical Report can also be used as a reference to determine the appropriateness of toys by earliestage, for use by distributors, institutions, and organizations involved with child play, as well as by paediatricinstitutions, 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. These guidelinesillustrate the age ranges during which a typical child has developed certain abilities.

Although age grading has safety implications, these guidelines are not intended to address specificsafety requirements. Specific safety requirements for toys can be found in the ISO 8124 series of toysafety standards (and in other regional toy safety standards and regulations). As an example, suchstandards will restrict the presence of small parts and small balls in toys intended for certain agegroups, due to the choking hazard.

These age determination guidelines are based on the advice of experts and traditional play patternsof children; they might differ from national or regional regulations or directives that classify a toy, orcategory of toy, as being intended for a different age.

Annex B gives details on how information on electronic toys and electronics in toys was considered inthe development of these age determination guidelines.
