Walgreens Recalls Disney Baby Winnie the Pooh Rattle Sets for Choking Hazard

Walgreens is recalling about 54,000 Disney Baby Winnie the Pooh Rattle Sets because the feet can detach and pose a choking hazard to young children. Consumers should immediately remove the rattle from children and contact Walgreens for a refund.

What this means for you

Minor labeling or packaging issue, or a voluntary precautionary recall. Risk of harm is low but real — follow the manufacturer's instructions.

Our severity reasoning: Although the hazard is choking—a serious risk—the source explicitly states no injuries have been reported, and the detachments (8 reports) have only been observed in reports without resulting harm. This qualifies as a low-risk hazard with no reported injury, meriting a score of 2 under the rubric criterion for voluntary precautionary recalls.

Plain-English summary

Walgreens is recalling the Disney Baby Winnie the Pooh Rattle Set, which includes three rattles marked for ages 3 months and above. The rattle features the character Winnie the Pooh and is blue and red with green and yellow shapes, approximately 6.7 inches high.

The feet on the Winnie the Pooh rattle can detach, posing a choking hazard to young children. Walgreens has received 8 reports of the feet detaching. No injuries have been reported.
