Battat is recalling about 300,000 Parents® Magazine Record-A-Voice toy cell phones. The metal pin inside the hinge of the cell phone flip-top can fall out, posing a choking hazard to young children. The toy cell phone plays different songs, sound effects and user recorded messages. They were sold in polka dot, swirl, floral and stripe patterns, and the Parents logo is visible inside the flip-top and on the battery compartment cover. Only items bearing date codes 090106 through 101206 are involved in this recall. The date code can be located on the bottom of the product packaging and in the battery compartment. They were sold at Target stores nationwide from September 2006 to January 2007 for about $8. Consumers should take these toy cell phones away from young children immediately and contact battat to receive a replacement product or refund. For additional information, call Battat, Inc. at (800) 247-6144, or e-mail the firm at cellrecall@ battatco.com.
