The Week in Recalls 4/6 – 4/12

Here is a recap of the child-related product recalls from the Consumer Product Safety Commission between 4/6/08 and 4/12/08. I think the theme this week is, if a product gets anywhere near your child’s mouth, double check the nature of the materials and how well they’re assembled.

Infantino Lamb Grabby rattles recalled

The Consumer Product Safety Commission has recalled Infantino Lamb Grabby rattles. The tail piece of the rattle reportedly detaches easily and poses a choking hazard. The 20,000 rattles were sold at Wal-Mart and Babies “R” Us and other stores across the US between September 2007 through February 2008. If you have purchased one of these rattles, you may contact the manufacturer for a replacement.

From the Consumer Product Safety Commission:

The recalled Infantino Lamb Grabby Rattles(tm) are shaped like a lamb with an Infantino elliptical-shaped logo stamped on the front right foot of the lamb. Only rattles with date code 0907 printed on the back of the left ear of the lamb are included in the recall. The production batch code is printed in a dial format with the year in the iddle of a circle and an arrow pointing to the number on the circle that indicates the month. Rattles that do not have a date code are not included in the recall.
