Toys R Us Imaginarium Recall: Choking Hazard

About 24,000 Imaginarium activity centers sold at Toys R Us stores have been recalled because they could be a choking hazard.  

The Toys R Us Imaginarium recall was announced by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) on May 30, after Toys R Us received at least eight reports of knobs detaching from the toys.

According to the CPSC, small wooden knobs that attach the xylophone keys to the end of the toy may pose a choking hazard for young children. However, there have been no reports of injuries connected to the toy recall.

The recall affects the Imaginarium 5-Sided Activity Center, model number 46284 and Toys R Us item number 295909. The activity center has two triangle-shaped ends with a xylophone on one end and a mirror on the other. It also has rotating gears, moveable block letters and sliding shapes. The word “Imaginarium” appears in a blue oval logo with a shooting star over the second “i”. The model number is printed on the back of the box over a barcode with the number 000799985462841.

The recalled Imaginarium activity centers were sold at Toys R Us stores nationwide and on the company’s website at www.toysrus.com for about $25 from August 2009 through September 2010.

The CPSC recommends that consumers who have the recalled toys stop using them immediately, take them out of reach of young children and return them to a Toys R Us store for a refund or store credit. Consumers with questions can call Toys R Us at (800) 869-7787 or visit the company’s website at www.toysrus.com/safety.
