Fisher-Price Recalls Learning Pots and Pans

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with Fisher-Price, announced a voluntary recall of the Learning Pots & Pans Toys due to a potential choking hazard to young children. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.

This recall involves Learning Pots and Pans toy sets with stackable pots and pans, a lid and shape-sorting blocks. The toys have light and sound features that operate on three AA batteries. Model number G6685 is located on the bottom of the blue pan. The recalled items were sold at discount department and toy stores nationwide from October 2007 to August 2008 for about $20.

Consumers should immediately take these recalled toys away from children and examine the bottom of the blue pan. The pan should contain six screws. If all six screws are installed, no further action is necessary. If any screws are missing, the consumer should contact Fisher-Price to arrange for the return of the blue pan for a replacement. For additional information, contact Fisher-Price at (888) 521-0820 anytime, or visit the firm’s Web site at www.service.mattel.com
