Fisher-Price recalls

There seems to be alot of recalls lately with FP, which is concerning isn't it? today I heard that the laugh & learn kitchen was recalled due to small parts coming off and obviously could choke a LO !!! how scary. When you buy a toy which states what age they can be to play with it, you expect that toy to be made for that age group, who makes these toys!!!
What does everyone else think?

I'm steering clear of Fisher Price stuff for now, just until they get it all sorted.

I heard it on the radio yest, looked on FP website and it says on there. There is a problem with the tap & clock, apparently they can come loose and expose small objects that LO's can get their hands on. If you ring them they will send you some parts I think. I've bought the laugh & learn house, fingers crossed it's ok, but saying that it shouldn't be fingers crossed as these cock ups could do serious injury!

I bought this for Dion's birthday and am taking it back to Early Learning Centre for a refund. They have offered to send the replacement parts but I would prefer to be on the safe side and maybe get something else instead. Thank you for the post though, I wouldn't have known about this otherwise.

We have the Laugh and Learn house and it's Isabella's favourite.

Hope no recalls on this!

it is worrying that so many toys are being recalled I think Im going to stick with the washing basket katlin uses as a car it is so much safer and it is very cheap and lots of fun we have added a cardboard steering wheel and tyres brum brum
