Additional Guidelines and Recommendations

  • Corn, as well as other small grains and nuts are a choking hazard for young children, as well as a potential allergy hazard.
  • Young children can (and do) stick corn and other small grains up their nose and/or into their ears.
  • Small grains and nuts in these play structures provide a habitat for rodents, snakes and other animals, resulting in additional hazards (bites, diseases, etc.).
