Daiso is recalling wooden toys that have small parts which can break and detach, posing a choking hazard to young children.
This recall involves four models of Daiso wooden toys including Penguin Handbell, Pull Doll, Alligator Pull Toy and Rolling Animals. The Penguin Handbell has a small metal bell inside its hollow interior. The Pull Doll's limbs move up and down when the string is pulled. The Alligator Pull Toy is green and yellow will move in an undulating fashion when pulled. The Rolling Animals are in the forms of a dog, rabbit, cat and mice, and their tails are connected to their bodies by metal springs. Daiso is printed on the product's packaging.
The toys, made in China, were sold at Daiso stores in California from December 2008 through May 2009 for between $1 and $4.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled toys away from children and contact Daiso for a free replacement toy or a full refund.
For more information, contact Daiso toll-free at (888) 580-8841 between 9:30 a.m. and 6:30 p.m. PT Monday through Friday, or visit the firms' Web site at www.daisorecall.com.
The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
