February 10, 2010: Tiny Love Recalls Wind Chime Toys

Recall Reason

Many models of the wind chime toys are included in this recall. Image here represents just one.

The US Consumer Product Safety Commission and Health Canada, in cooperation with Tiny Love Inc., of New York, New York, and the Maya Group Inc., of Huntington Beach, California, have recalled about 800,000 wind chime toys. Of that number, 200,000 sold in Canada.

The wind chime toy can be pulled apart exposing sharp metal rods, posing puncture and laceration hazards to the baby. The firm has received five reports of babies pulling apart the wind chimes exposing the sharp metal rods, including a report of a minor injury to a 24-month-old baby who punctured his cheek with the rods.
