    IMPORTANT: This product is made with baby-safe mirror material that complies with NZ/AU safety standards. They are designed for a baby to view from approximately 20cm away and this creates a sharp reflection. If you hold the mirror further back or if you move it left to right it may become slightly out of focus.
