Care Bears Lunch Kits Sold at Kohls are being recalled. The pull-up drinking spout can detach from the bottle, posing a choking hazard to young children.
The firm has received two reports of the drinking spouts detaching. No injuries have been reported.
The recalled purple and blue lunch bags are about 9-inches tall and have a rainbow strap. A multi-colored, shiny-plastic front displays Care Bears characters and the name Care Bears. The lunch bags are insulated and have a netted side pocket used to hold a 6 oz. water bottle.
The kits were sold at Kohls Department Stores nationwide from July 2004 through September 2004 for about $13.
Consumers are advised to stop using the water bottles immediately and contact Sky High International, the manufacturer, for a refund of the water bottle.
