Hazard

The seams in the toy can tear open and expose small plastic pellets, posing a choking or aspiration hazard to young children who mouth the pellets.

Remedy

Consumers are advised to stop using the toy immediately and contact Determined Productions or stop at a local Kohl's Department Stores to receive a refund or store credit.

Incidents & injuries

Determined Productions has received one report of seam breakage on the toy, resulting in a child choking on the plastic pellets. The child was taken to the hospital and released without any injury, after a procedure to look for aspirated beads.
