No incident, no one hurt Made Aug 30, 2024, sent to the company Oct 1, 2024, published by CPSC Oct 16, 2024
The product, in the report: It is a baby toy that is a blue dinosaur with a circle in its belly that has a mirror/rattles. In the dinosaurs hands are two teethers, one of which had ribbons wrapped around and sewn on for the child to grab. It also comes with a loop attached at the top of his head to allow hanging from another toy or stroller.
My five month old was playing with his Carters Dinosaur Activity toy when I noticed the stitching on one of the ribbons was coming undone and was seconds away from detaching, posing a chocking risk for my child had I not caught it when I did.

The product, in the report: Stuff Toy.
We had a stuff toy from carters for my 14 month old daughter. As she was playing with it, we saw a big needle inside, which was probably there as someone forgot to remove it. Luckily we caught it soon enough and avoided an injury. So wanted to make sure this is addressed as it can result in fatal incidents with kids.

No one hurt Made Dec 4, 2011, sent to the company Dec 9, 2011, published by CPSC Dec 23, 2011
The product, in the report: This is a stuffed monkey, about 6-7 inches in length with a semi-hard toy plastic ring to be used to attach the toy to an object, e.g., a crib rail. It has an electronic music player that plays “Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star” and red lights blink under both cheeks. The first tag has “Carter’s” on the front side, on the back of this tag is the following: All new materials Contents polyester fibers PA 9455 (HK) Imported by Prestige Toy Corp. Made in China The second tag has the following: PO#: 11983 Style #: 72086 Base #: 2086 0910 Shenzhen, China
We acquired a used bassinet for our granddaughter. Attached to it there happened to be a toy stuffed monkey with a push-button music player. The monkey’s features are all embroidered - except the nose, which appears to be a hard plastic, egg shaped button, about 1/2” long by 3/8” wide.
The nose came off, and I consider this to represent a serious choking hazard for a 19 week-old infant.
