Fisher-Price Recalls 15,000 Pots and Pans Toy Sets

The plastic cover can detach and release small balls that pose a choking hazard

By Parenting.com

Fisher-Price has recalled about 15,000 Learning Pots and Pans toy sets. Missing screws can cause the clear plastic cover to come loose and release small balls, presenting a choking hazard to young children.

The Learning Pots and Pans toy sets include stackable pots and pans, a lid and shape-sorting blocks. The toys have light and sound features. Model number G6685 is located on the bottom of the blue pan. The toys were made in China and sold in 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
