Recall of children's toys just before Christmas: Detaching parts - danger of suffocation for children

They are represented in many homes with small children: sliding figures made of wood.

Now one of the wholesalers has called back a number of them because there could be danger.

• Beeboo's fairy tale sliding figures are affected by a recall.

• To be on the safe side, the manufacturer calls the goods back.

• Small parts of the figures can peel off.

Nuremberg - They are absolute classics for small children:

wooden sliding

figures that children can push in front of them.

Not only are they colorful and cute, as they are often animal figures, but they are also great learning aids for kids to walk around.

They offer an additional possibility of stabilization and playfully help sharpen your sense of balance.

Therefore, they are at home in very many households with children.

However, a well-known brand that

sells

such

sliding toys

has now announced a recall.

The safety for children can

no longer be guaranteed

during use due to

parts becoming detached

.

The language is from

Vedes based in Nuremberg

.

Vedes has published

on its own website, the product recall is the fairy tale sliding figure from BeeBoo.
