Kids Preferred Toy Company Issues Voluntary Recall of 587,000 Plush Toys

It’s hard to imagine that the holidays are nearly upon us. For many parents, that means it’s almost time for Christmas shopping. However, because toy recalls occur frequently, it’s important for parents to be aware of what toys are and are not safe for their little ones. A quick glance at the news or Consumer Product Safety Commission’s website is a good way to find information about any current recalls, such as the one recently issued by Kids Preferred Toy Company. Yesterday the toy company recalled “more than 587,000 children’s toys…because of a wind-up attachment that could pose a choking hazard.”

As parents, we can never be too careful about the products we use with or around our children.

The last thing any parent would expect is for one of these products to malfunction or pose a safety hazard. Alas, safety recalls are more common than many realize, and just recently one was issued for a popular car-seat manufactured by “Diono, formerly known as Sunshine Kids Juvenile.”
