EU (19th to 20th week)

Recalled products	Reason	Violated Standard & Regulation
Push-along toys	The plastic eggs are small parts and may be put in the mouth by small children, causing them to choke.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Plastic doll set	The plastic material of the doll’s face contains di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) (measured value 24% by weight). This phthalate may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to the reproductive system.	REACH Regulation
Amber necklace	The cord can easily break, releasing the beads. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke.	–
Pushchair	There are accessible areas where the bars forming the hood are connected, as well as exposed edges and protruding parts which could injure the child. Moreover, the front wheels can easily break while the pushchair is in use.	European standard EN 1888
Wooden musical toy (castanets)	The red and yellow paint of the wooden toy contains lead (measured value up to 330 mg/kg). Exposure to lead can result in severe and irreversible neurotoxicity, particularly in the case of children.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-3
Plastic swan with eggs	The toy contains small parts (the eggs) that can be swallowed by small children and cause choking.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Set of rattles	The rattles can easily break, generating small parts which could be put in the mouth by a small child and cause choking. Moreover, the handles of some rattles are too long. A small child could put them in the mouth where they can get stuck and obstruct the airways.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Rattle	Some of the pins on the rattle have not been glued correctly and the sides can detach. If the rattle falls apart, the bell inside is released and a small child could put the bell into the mouth and choke.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Rattle set	The elephant rattle can easily break, releasing small parts which children may put in the mouth and choke upon.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1

Plastic Doll	The plastic material of the doll contains both di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and dibutylphthalate (DBP) (measured values: 1.2 and 15.2% by weight respectively). These phthalates may harm the health of children, causing possible damage to the reproductive system.	REACH Regulation

Toy gun	The red plastic suction cups of the projectiles can easily detach. A child could put them in the mouth and choke on them.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Pull-along toy telephone	The stickers on the toy can easily detach, generating small parts. A small child may put them in the mouth and choke. Moreover, the cord is too long which can lead to strangulation while playing with the toy. Also, the plastic bag of the packaging is too thin. If a child plays with the packaging, the plastic can cover the mouth and nose causing suffocation.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
Toy scooter	The product poses a risk of choking because small parts (the screw nuts of the wheels) easily detach from the scooter: a child may put the small part in the mouth and choke. In addition, the scooter is not sufficiently stable, causing the child to lose balance and fall.	Toy Safety Directive and European standard EN 71-1
