Minga Fair Trade Imports is recalling about 135 wooden flipping acrobat toys because the paint used on the figures contains excessive levels of lead. This recall includes four cartoon character designs—a coyote, super hero, woodpecker, and yellow bird—suspended between two 8.5-inch wooden sticks. These toys were sold at independent children's stores and gift shops nationwide between September 2008 and May 2013 for approximately $6. Consumers should immediately stop using these toys and return them for a full refund or replacement credit.
The paint on the toy characters contains lead levels that exceed federal safety standards. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects, including nervous system damage and developmental delays.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled flipping acrobat toys away from children and return them to Minga Fair Trade Imports for a full refund or credit towards a replacement product.
