Consumer Recalls: Children’s Frog Masks

Target Corp., of Minneapolis, Minn. announced a voluntary recall of Children’s Frog Masks because the plush frog masks lack proper ventilation. When secured in place across a child’s face, it presents a suffocation hazard to the child. The recall involves child-sized frog-themed animal masks. The plush mask is green with yellow and red highlights. There are two eye cutouts and a green elastic band with a fastener used to secure the mask at the back of the child’s head. UPC code 06626491474 is printed on a label attached to the mask. The affected masks were sold exclusively at Target stores nationwide from August 2011 through September 2011 for about $1.

Consumers should immediately take masks from young children and return the product to any Target store for a full refund. For additional information, contact Target Guest Relations at (800) 440-0680 between 7 a.m. and 6 p.m. CT Monday through Friday, or visit the firm’s website.

Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.
