  1. First aid

    Made Jan 16, 2013, sent to the company Jan 29, 2013, published by CPSC Feb 12, 2013

    The product, in the report: Pour and Float Froggy by VTech (Battery operated bath toy by VTech) Product Features: Comes with 3 cups for stacking and nesting on the frog’s tummy Water squirts from the mouth like a fountain when one of two water sensors are activated Electronic bath toy has a water sensor that recognizes when the frog is in or out ofthe water Light-up press button on the frog’s tummy activates playful phrases and music Automatic shut-off preserves battery life

    We received the Pour and Float Froggy by Vfech as a gift when we celebrated Christmas this year (29 December 2012). We used it with our infant who liked it as she loves to splash (1 January 2013). After that bath it was placed in the dry basket with other bath toys to store. However, 5 days later when we thought to put it in the tub for our preschooler my husband had tried to turn it on and it wouldn’t work (6 January 2013). He then turned it over and it had brown fluid flow out onto our floor, tub side,and into the tub water with our child. He quickly placed it into our bathroom sink. The toy was opened to look into the battery compartment to see what was going on with this NEW toy. The water from the one time it had been used had combined with the batteries and they had rusted out. There was brown (the color of mud) acid rust water coming from this infant toy! Please see the attached pictures. Our preschooler had been rinsed with fresh water before being removed from the tub but her skin is irritated in a few spots- her left butt cheek and left hand closest to the acid water contact. Thankfully the [REDACTED] lotion seems to help. I just can’t image what would have happened if it were our baby in the tub or if all the battery acid had ran into the bath water with our daughter!
