Giggles International is recalling about 13,000 Animated Sing-Along Monkey toys because the battery compartment can overheat and reach temperatures of up to 230 degrees Fahrenheit. There have been two reports of the toy overheating and melting its battery housing, which creates a significant risk of burns to children. This 9-inch tall plush monkey sings "5 Little Monkeys" and was sold exclusively at Cracker Barrel Old Country Stores between September and October 2014. Consumers should immediately stop using the toy and return it for a full refund.
The toy's battery compartment can overheat to extreme temperatures, potentially causing the plastic to melt and posing a serious burn hazard to children playing with or holding the toy. Two incidents of overheating and melting have already been reported.
Consumers should immediately take the animated monkey away from children, remove the batteries and return the toy to any Cracker Barrel Old Country Store or contact Giggles International for a full refund.
