What is the hazard with Baby Sesame Street Elmo Silicone Teethers?

Baby Sesame Street Elmo Silicone Teethers was announced earlier this year, in the "Toys" category. The black eyes can detach from the recalled teether if frozen, posing a risk of serious injury or death from a choking hazard. This falls under one of the more serious hazard categories (injury, choking or strangulation risk), so the recall covers every unit sold, not only units with a reported incident.

Consumers should stop using the recalled teether immediately, take it away from children and contact Skip Hop Inc. at www.skiphoprecall.com to obtain a refund in the form of a gift card and further instructions on disposal of the product.

Sold at: Sold At: Carter’s retail stores nationwide and online at www.carters.com and www.skiphop.com from January 2025 through March 2026 for about $12..
