Children's Clothing

Sleepwear:

• Sizes up to 14X only except those designed for infants up to 7 kg.
• All loose fitting sleepwear including nightgowns, nightshirts, dressing gowns, bathrobes, house coats, robes, pyjamas and baby doll pyjamas made of 100% cotton, acrylic or acetate or blends of these fibres, cannot be sold due to their failure to meet flammability standards.
• These garments should be made of 100 % polyester, 100 % nylon or polyester/nylon blends to meet the flammability requirements.

Drawstrings:

Drawstrings on children's snowsuits, jackets and sweatshirts can become caught on playground equipment, fences or other objects and result in strangulation, or in the case of a vehicle, the child being dragged. Check all children's clothing for loose drawstrings.

• All drawstrings should be removed from the head and neck area of children's clothing.
• At the bottom of children's clothing, either remove the drawstrings completely or trim the exposed length to 8 cm (3 in) with the garment fully stretched.

• Make sure the end of the drawstring is free of knots, loops or toggles, which can also become caught.
