Hobby Lobby Recalls Infant Pacifier Holders Due to Choking Hazard

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Hobby Lobby is recalling approximately 12,900 Little Wishes Summer Plush Pacifier Holders, which include blue whale and pink octopus designs. Small parts like the whale's fin or the octopus's head can detach from the holder, creating a choking risk for infants. While one report of a whale fin detaching has been received, no injuries have been reported. These products were sold at Hobby Lobby stores nationwide from January 2016 through April 2016 for about $5.

Risk

The plush components of the pacifier holder, specifically the whale's fin and the octopus's head, can separate from the main body. If these small parts detach while a baby is using the product, they can be swallowed or become lodged in the child's throat, posing a serious choking hazard.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your pacifier holder to see if it matches the Little Wishes Summer Plush designs: a blue whale (item number 5202601) or a pink octopus (item number 5725213).
  2. Verify the item number by looking at the top left corner of the product's original hang tag, and look for 'Hobby Lobby 9123069' printed on the front and back of the sewn-in fabric label.
  3. Immediately stop using the recalled pacifier holder and take it away from children.
  4. Return the product to any Hobby Lobby store to receive a full refund or a store credit.
