      My nephews, daughter, and a 2 year old in care wear one. The fossilized amber when worn on the skin creates succinic acid whick acts as an inflammatory, pain reliever and has some anti-biotic properties. None of these kids have needed oral meds for teething, never had strep throat, ear infections and very rarely needed meds for colds.
      The beads should each have a knot so if the string breaks the beads do not fall every where. The clasp is made of plastic or rubber and will separate under pressure to prevent choking.
      Amber has been used for centuries in Europe, and is even used by many persons in sports.( dcd is a coach).
      Even though you should take them off for sleeping the likely hood of choking it pretty slim. And seems more likely they will find something to stick in their mouth from your floor, I heard of one boy almost choking because he had is arm stuck in his but his parents put his older sisters on him and it was MUCH to large and they had it wraped around more than once( stupid)

        One of my dcg's (8 mos) was wearing one of these when my licensor came for my re- licensing visit. She told me dcg could not wear it, any necklace is a choking hazard, and she even emailed me to follow up and make sure dcg didn't have it again!
        I'm not sure if they work, but just an FYI to check with licensing about these. I didn't think it was a big deal, but I complied and told the parents it couldn't come back (dcm rolled her eyes, too).

          I don't allow jewelry so I wouldn't allow them.

            As a Mom I'm fine with them, but as a FCC provider I wouldn't allow them. I'd be too paranoid that something would happen. One of our licensors also strongly suggested we don't allow them because if something did happen the parents could sue us for improper supervision. Even though THEY put the necklace on the child.
