    The product, in the report: Baby Einstein Glow & Discover Light Bar Activity Station. Dimensions 8.94 x 12.6 x 5.94 inches

    My child was playing with a Baby Einstein toy and I observed that the paint was coming off. A small rub with a water wipe showed that the paint was coming off EASILY and in a significant amount. Im concerned my 7 month old may have ingested it by putting his fingers in his mouth after playing with it. Its a childrens light up activity bar that we have used during tummy time and to help motivate crawling

    The product, in the report: Baby Einstein Ocean Glow Sensory Shaker Musical Toy

    My 12 month old triplets received the Baby Einstein Ocean Glow Sensory Shaker Musical Toy as a gift 2 weeks ago. One of them was chewing on the toy, like babies do, and one of the black pieces detached. I was watching her and immediately took the toy away. No injuries occurred but if not supervised closely she could have choked.

    The product, in the report: Toy name on Walmart website is “Baby Einstein Ocean Glow Sensory Shaker, Musical Toy, Ages Newborn +”

    I was dropping my 4 year old off at prek. I was getting my 10 month old out of his seat, I noticed the wet rubber piece of the toy on his lap. That’s when I noticed multiple pieces were missing off the the toy. All were found in his car seat.

    This happened while in the vehicle. Noticed while parked at the school.

    Made Nov 14, 2020, sent to the company Dec 10, 2020, published by CPSC Dec 28, 2020

    The product, in the report: This product is called Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes. It is a white toy with a colorful circular button and a fake screen that lights up to the classical music that plays when you press the middle button. A caterpillar with large beads make up the handle.

    Today, I am reporting the Baby Einstein Take Along Tunes. My 11 month old son was playing with the toy on the floor at home, pressing the music button and chewing on the handle. I walked away for 30 seconds, and I came back, and the back where the batteries are, was open and the batteries were exposed and one fell out. At first, I thought this was user error, and got a screwdriver and screwed the back on the toy tighter. But the next day, the back fell off again, and my baby was chewing on the back with the screw in his mouth. No matter how much I screw the back on, the back will come off, even just when it falls on the carpet. It just concerns me that if I was not monitoring my baby as closely, he could have chewed and/or choked on a battery or swallowed a screw.
