Los Angeles - US authorities ordered toy-giant Fisher Price to recall over 10 million toys Thursday, including 7 million tricycles, over safety concerns.
'Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed,' the Consumer Product Safety Commission said in a statement.
Fisher Price said small parts had been found to detach from the toys and end up in children's mouths. The problem with the tricycles was a small protruding plastic key that had been found to injure children if they sat or fell on it.
The recalled products included about 7 million Fisher Price Trikes and Tough Trikes toddler tricycles, some 950,000 Healthy Care, Easy Clean and Close to Me High Chairs, about 100,000 Fisher-Price Little People Wheelies Stand 'n Play Rampway and about 2.8 million Baby Playzone Crawl & Cruise Playground, Baby Playzone Crawl & Slide Arcade, Baby Gymnastics Play Wall, Ocean Wonders Kick & Crawl Aquarium, 1-2-3 Tetherball, Bat & Score Goal.
