  1. No one hurt

    Made Oct 24, 2011, sent to the company Oct 31, 2011, published by CPSC Nov 15, 2011

    The product, in the report: Wooden toy maraca. When shaken, makes noise. Approximately 6.5 inches long. Handle is black. Maraca area is white and has a cat face drawn in black on it. Two white “ears” stick up from the round maraca part. We still have the original label from Target stores stuck on it. It says “Distributed by Innovative Storage Designs” “Mequon, WI 53092” “Maracas 1piece model #40160” “Made in China” “www.innovative-storage.com 1-800-473-3453” It also has a skew number on the sticker. It says $1.00 on the sticker as well. The maraca is evidently glued together in the middle, as that is where my daughter broke it apart, but it was a very “clean” break at a seam. We also have a matching dog maraca that was purchased at the same time and place. It has lost its sticker, but it is also a wooden maraca. It did not break. It has an orange handle and the round maraca part is yellow with a dog face drawn in white and black. It has orange “doggy ears” made by orange little pegs at top with small wooden oval “ears” that hang onto the pegs. The “ears” swing when the maraca is slightly moved. It does appear to have a similar “seam” on the round maraca part as well.

    This is a toy from Target’s dollar bins. It is a maraca shaped like a black and white cat. My 4 yr old daughter was able to crack it open and tons and tons of little tiny silver metal balls fell out onto the floor. They were so small my dog almost tried to eat one. This is very unsafe, even for older children. The toy cost $1 at Target.
