Categories: Babies, Health & safety, Baby essentials, Toys & games
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced the recall of about 7,000 Tumble Tower Infant Rattles due to the fact that the plastic end caps can break and small parts can fall out and pose a choking hazard to young children.
The rattles were made in China and manufactured by Manhattan Group LLC, of Minneapolis, Minnesota. They are 5 inches long and made of clear plastic with blue end cap pieces. The handles are clear and have multi-colored beads inside with colored rings on the outside. Also inside is a blue face that spins on a purple post when the rattle is turned.
These were sold at gift and specialty stores nationwide, mail order catalogs, and the Internet from September 2007 through April 2008 for about $15 each.
If you have one of these rattles, you are advised to immediately take it away from your child and return it to the store where purchased for a full refund. You may also contact Manhattan Group to exchange the rattle for another toy. You can reach them by calling (800) 541-1345 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday or by visiting their Web site.
