No one hurt Made Jun 3, 2011, published by CPSC Jun 27, 2011
The product, in the report: a pair of small wooden maracas; top half of egg shaped portion painted black. came as part of a band set, including a single drum and tamborine.
My son (age 47 months) was playing with the small maracas included in the First Act band set. The top half of the egg shaped portion came off and all of the miniscule balls/pellets scattered everywhere on the floor. I believe for a younger child this could pose as a choking hazard, as well as for pets. Luckily our dog wasn’t in the room and I was able to vacuum up most of the spill. I also believe this could cause injury to the eyes if they should get into the eyes when the maraca breaks open and the tiny balls come flying out. Teeny balls were everywhere and I still come across some that escaped the vacuum! Arg!
