Understand the issue

The toys can break, causing small beads or balls to be released, which poses a choking or aspiration hazard to young children.

The "Hourglass Space Sprout" is a multi-colored toy with a green smiling head; a clear hourglass, filled with beads; and two red balls with yellow spots as arms. The "Look for Me Bumblebee" has a purple base with a green leaf, a yellow head, and three rings that fit over the head. When the recalled toys are shaken, the beads inside make a rattle sound. On the back of the toys are the words, "Sassy®," "Burger King™," and "MADE IN CHINA." The packaging says, "Toddler Toys For Kids Under Three Years Old."
