Children & Toys recalls

Maxfield and Oberton Buckyballs® High Powered Magnets Sets

The high powered magnets sets were labeled "Ages 13+" and do not meet the mandatory toy standard F963-08 (effective August 17, 2009) which requires that such powerful magnets are not sold for children under 14. Magnets found by young children can be swallowed or aspirated. If more than one magnet is swallowed, the magnets can attract each other and cause intestinal perforations or blockages, which can be fatal.

MOA Entertainment Sandy the Squirrel Plush Toys

Young children can remove and ingest the squirrel's nose, which poses a choking hazard.

Toy Dart Gun Sets

Henry Gordy International

If a child places the soft, pliable plastic toy dart in his/her mouth, the toy can be inhaled into the throat and prevent the child from breathing.

Step2 Push Around and Whisper Ride Buggies

A pin attaching to the yellow knob on the handle of the buggy can loosen, causing the handle to detach from the buggy. This poses a serious risk of injury to young children.

Fly Dragonfly Remote-Controlled Helicopters

Imagine Nation Books Ltd./Books Are Fun

The rechargeable battery inside the helicopters can overheat, igniting the helicopter and posing fire and burn hazards to consumers.

Drop-Side Cribs

C&T International/Sorelle

The cribs' drop-side hardware can disengage from the tracks, causing the drop side to detach from the crib. When the drop-side partially detaches, it creates space between the drop side and the crib mattress. The bodies of infants and toddlers can become entrapped in the space, which can lead to strangulation and/or suffocation. Complete detachment of the drop sides can lead to falls from the crib. In addition, slats can detach from the sides of the cribs. Infants and toddlers can then become entrapped, strangle or fall out of the crib.

TechnoSkin Foam Balls and Sportime TechStitched Soccer Balls

Surface paints on the sports balls contain excessive levels of lead which is a violation of the federal lead paint standard.

Graco®-branded drop side cribs made by LaJobi

The drop side hardware can break or fail, allowing the drop side to detach from the crib. When the drop side detaches, a hazardous gap is created between the drop side and the crib mattress in which infants and toddlers can become wedged or entrapped, posing a risk of suffocation and strangulation. In addition, children can fall from the cribs when the drop side detaches or fails to lock.

Simplicity full-size cribs

Simplicity Inc. and SFCA

The crib's tubular metal mattress-support frame can bend or detach and cause part of the mattress to collapse, creating a space into which an infant or toddler can roll and become wedged, entrapped or fall out of the crib.

Surface paint on the red eggs contains excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard.
