The magnetic tip of the drawing pen can dislodge from the pen, posing a choking hazard to children.
This recall involves the Toulouse-LapTrec magnetic sketchboard, which has a white plastic writing surface bordered by either a red or brown plastic frame, and has a bean bag type backing.
The sketch board has four animal shapes across the top - a rabbit, dog, cat and duck.
The multicolored magnetic pen is affixed to the front of the sketchpad.
They were sold at Target stores nationwide and by various online retailers from March 2010 to March 2011 for about $16.
Consumers should immediately take recalled sketchboards away from children and contact Battat to receive a free replacement sketchboard.
For additional information, contact Battat toll-free at (866) 665-5524 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit Battat's website at www.battatco.com
