Hi new mum to mumsnet, my three year old bit into 2 fimo beads I was making leaving teeth marks, when questioned he said he didnt eat one but I cant be 100% sure! Anyone know if fimo is harmful if swallowed I dont think it is but would love some opinions! THANKS!

this from wiki
FIMO is conform to the European Standard EN 71 part 5 and bears the ACMI-Seal AP "non toxic".

I'm not sure but I think if you speak to NHS direct they can contact the National Poisons unit which will be able to tell you.

I doubt it is harmful though, isn't it for kids? Hope your dc is ok.
