Children's Scooters Recalled by Kiddieland

Kiddieland Toys Limited is recalling about 16,000 Lights and Sounds Children's Scooters in the US and a further 700 in Canada because a child’s finger can get caught in the hinge mechanism between the steering column and the platform, posing a laceration hazard.

The CPSC and Kiddieland have received two reports of children whose fingers got caught in the hinge mechanism and required stitches.

This recall involves three models of Kiddieland “Lights and Sounds” three-wheeled scooters including a red Spiderman, a blue Thomas & Friends™ and a pink girl’s scooter. The scooters have buttons on the handle that play music and sounds. “Kiddieland” is molded on the back of the steering mechanism. Spiderman or Thomas & Friends™ are found on the steering mechanism and platform. The girl’s model has butterflies on the platform. For more information on this recall go to http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml11/11206.html.

The scooters were sold at Toys R Us and JCPenney from January 2009 through February 2011 for about $40
