Default Is decking safe (with regard to small children chewing it)?

Hi, I was planning to make some planters for our garden from decking
boards (from Wickes or B&Q).
As it's treated it should last a long time, however I am worried
whether this 'treatment' is harmful to small children by touching or
chewing (we have a 15 month old son and hope to have another child).
I would have thought it was safe as it's so widely used but just
wanted to double-check.
Thanks
