URGENT 7month old sucked on string and the colour came off - need I worry?

Dd2 got her hands on a fan from a Chinese restaurant which had red string hanging from it - and she had a good long suck on it before I realised. Later saw that her mouth had gone purple from it, and her hands were all red. Tried to wash tongue and hands as well as I could. But now I'm a bit worried - do you think it will harm her - toxic substances or something? We're supposed to go away in 30 minutes!

I'm sure she'll be just fine. Why don't you give her some milk or water to dilute any yukkiness? If you're really worried you could you ring NHS direct or your GP quickly for reassurance.
Hope your holiday is good.
