Every line below is in CPSC’s own words, with its source beside it.
What’s wrong with it?
A cap on the wire supports inside the soft gym’s upright arms can detach, allowing the wire to poke through the fabric. This poses a laceration and puncture hazard to babies.

Which ones are recalled?
The recalled Baby Connection Fun Frog Soft Gym is comprised of a multi-colored, frog-shaped padded fabric mat, from which blue and orange support arms extend. The support arms consist of thin steel wire covered by foam and fabric. They can be arched, allowing for three stuffed infant toys to hang above the product’s mat. A label with the word “Infantino” is attached to each of the stuffed toys as well as the underside of the mat. Products sold under item 150-761, Infantino Activity Soft Gym, which have a stamp on the back of the product showing 150-761 Production Date June 2005, are not affected by this recall.
About 26,000 units, as CPSC gives them.
