Plain-English summary

Tiny Love Inc. is recalling wind chime toys sold separately, with the Gymini Kick & Play Activity Gym, and in Tiny Smarts Gift Sets. The recall involves approximately 600,000 units in the United States and 200,000 units in Canada. The toys were sold at Toys R Us, Walmart, Target, Buy Buy Baby, and TJ Maxx stores nationwide from February 2002 through February 2010.

The wind chime toys can be pulled apart, exposing sharp metal rods that pose puncture and laceration hazards to babies. The firm has received five reports of babies pulling apart the wind chimes, including one report of a minor injury to a 24-month-old baby who punctured his cheek with the rods.
