Toy Bear Recalled for Choking Hazard
WASHINGTON — The Consumer Product Safety Commission on Tuesday recalled one member of the “Kensington Bear” toy family because buttons may detach from clothes the bear wears and choke small children.
The commission said the recalled model is number S7417. The brown, 14-inch stuffed bear is clad in a maroon print dress trimmed with pink and blue ribbons at the hem and three heart-shaped buttons sewn on the front. The bear’s outfit also includes white lace bloomers and a straw hat with a pink bow.
The panel said the buttons “may pose a potential choking hazard for children under age 3” who might loosen and pull the buttons off the dress and swallow them.
