VTech is recalling about 280,000 Shake and Sing Elephant rattles because the ears can break off, creating small parts that pose a choking hazard to infants. VTech has received five reports of the ears breaking off the rattle, though no injuries have been reported. The recalled rattle features a purple elephant with yellow and blue ears on one end and a black and white teething ring on the other. Consumers should immediately stop using these rattles and contact VTech for a full refund or a credit toward a replacement product.
The plastic ears on the elephant can snap off during play or if dropped, creating small pieces that a young child could accidentally swallow or choke on. Five separate incidents of these ears breaking off have already been reported to the company.
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled rattles and contact VTech for a full refund or credit for a replacement product.
