SimplyFun Recalls Ribbit Board Games

October 31, 2007     Spanish
SimplyFun is recalling about 1,500 of its 'Ribbit' board games. Surface paint on the five frog-shaped wooden pieces contain excess levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard.

The games are sold with five frog-shaped wooden pieces that act as pawns for movement. The wooden pieces are blue, red, green, yellow and lavender in color.

The games were sold by SimplyFun "independent consultants" nationwide from March 2007 through October 2007 for about $18. They were made in China.

Consumers should immediately remove the five frog pieces from the game and discontinue using them. Consumers should contact SimplyFun for a refund or a set of five replacement frogs.
