CPSC Announces Three Recalls

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced three voluntary recalls in the juvenile industry:

1. baby rattles from Kid O
2. Cool-it Soother from Vulli
3. Toddler Talk Toy Mobile Phone from Discover Toys

The Kid O rattles were recalled because the company’s Prisma and Duo style wooden baby rattles had detachable beads that are considered a choking hazard. The Toddler Talk Toy Mobile Phone from Discovery Toys was also recalled due to a choking hazard as the clear plastic antenna can break off. In addition, the Cool-it Soother by Vulli poses an ingestion hazard if the teething ring is punctured and liquid escapes. For more information, visit www.cpsc.gov.
