Kiddieland recalls plastic trikes

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4 (UPI) -- Kiddieland Toys Ltd. of Scituate, Mass., is recalling 12,000 Disney Fairies Plastic Trikes due to attached figurines that present a hazard, regulators said.

The trikes have plastic fairy figures on top of the handle post that pose a risk of cutting children who fall forward while riding, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission said.

The trikes were imported from China and sold nationwide from July 2009 through December 2009 for about $50.

Involved in the recall are colorful, plastic trikes with a carousel in the middle of the handlebar, on which fairy figurines spin around as the trike moves.

Consumers were advised to take the trikes from children and contact Kiddieland for a free replacement handlebar.

Consumers were advised to call 800-430-5307 for information.
