Infantino Recalls about 20,000 Infant Rattles. The tail-piece on the rattles can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. Infantino has received eight reports of the tail piece on the rattle detaching.
The recall is for the Lamb Grabby Rattles that are shaped like a lamb with the company's elliptical-shaped logo stamped on the front right foot of the lamb.
Only rattles with date code 0907 printed on the back of the left ear of the lamb are included in the recall. The production batch code is printed in a dial format with the year in the middle of a circle and an arrow pointing to the number on the circle that indicates the month. Rattles that do not have a date code are not included in the recall.
They were sold at Wal-Mart, Babies "R" Us and other specialty stores nationwide from September 2007 through February 2008 for between $3 and $4.
Consumers should immediately take the recalled toys away from young children and contact Infantino for a replacement rattle or a product of equal value.
