Warner Bros. Store is recalling Tweety rattles and sandals because small parts can detach and pose a choking hazard to young children.

What this means for you

Real risk of harm even if no illness or injury has been reported yet. Stop using the product and follow the agency's guidance.

Our severity reasoning: The recall involves a choking hazard to young children, which is a risk-of-harm product where injury has not yet been reported, fitting the High severity criteria.

Plain-English summary

Warner Bros. Studio Store is recalling approximately 3,800 Tweety rattles and 1,000 pairs of Tweety girls' jelly swimwear sandals. The rattles are part of a Tweety Bib, Rattle and Spoon Set, while the sandals are transparent pink plastic swimwear sandals in infant sizes 3 to 15 months.

The recall is due to a choking hazard. The small blue and white bib on the rattle can detach, and the three round plastic flowers on the top surface of the sandals can also detach. These small parts pose a choking risk to young children. CPSC and Warner Bros. Studio Store have received three reports of parents removing detached parts from babies' mouths, but no injuries have been reported.

The rattles were sold from August 1998 through January 2000 for about $15, and the sandals were sold from February 2000 through April 2000 for about $10. Consumers should take these products away from children immediately and return them to a Warner Bros. Store for a refund. For more information, consumers can call Warner Bros. Store toll-free at (800) 795-9277.
