Creative Expressions is recalling about 43,100 children's party hats. The foil fringe glued to the bottom edge of the party hats can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. The paper party hats involved in this recall measure 6.5-inches high by 4.5-inches wide and are cone shaped. The blue paper hats have "1st" printed on the front and blue foil fringe glued to the bottom. They were sold at party and discount department stores nationwide from February 2005 through May 2007 for about four dollars. Consumers should discard the hats immediately and contact Creative Expressions to receive a full refund. For additional information, contact Creative Expressions at (800) 428-5017 between 8 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm's Web site at
