Mother and Baby Plush Toys recalled across Canada over choking hazard fears | CBC News

Health Canada is asking Canadian families to check any stuffed animals that may have appeared under the tree this year, because there could be a choking hazard.

The agency says Chinese-made Mother and Baby Plush Toys — including animals like pandas, elephants, lions, tigers and giraffes — don’t meet Canadian safety standards and hard plastic eyes could come loose and be swallowed by a young child.

The affected toys have a universal product code (UPC) of 81402-39986 and item number of P273585. Health Canada said the importer, Chantia Sales, has not had any reports of injuries in Canada, as of last week. The company has sold 120 units since May of 2023.

Consumers are asked to return the product to the point of sale or contact the importer directly.
