Although we have had no problems over the past 30 years we have been advised by safety officials that using the bridal by children under 3 yrs age is not recommended, since it may be a "choking hazard".

You must agree, if the rocking horse is used by a child under 3 years of age, you or the receiver (if a gift) will either remove the bridal or cut the loop reins for a right and left bridal rein. To avoid any"choking hazard".
