Battat Recalls Toulouse-LapTrec Magnetic Sketchboards

The magnetic tip can dislodge, posing a choking hazard


Battat is recalling about 95,000 Toulouse-LapTrec magnetic sketchboards. The magnetic tip of the drawing pen can dislodge from the pen, posing a choking hazard to children.

Battat has received 19 reports of the magnetic tip separating from the pen. No injuries have been reported.

This recall involves the Toulouse-LapTrec magnetic sketchboard, which has a white plastic writing surface bordered by either a red or brown plastic frame, and has a bean bag type backing. The sketch board has four animal shapes across the top – a rabbit, dog, cat and duck. The multicolored magnetic pen is affixed to the front of the sketchpad. The model number BX1026 (red frame) or BX1027 (brown frame) can be found on a paper wrapper that comes with the product at the time it was purchased.

Target and Barnes & Noble stores sold the sketchboards nationwide and by various online retailers from March 2010 to March 2011 for about $16.  They were made in China.

Consumers should immediately take recalled sketchboards away from children and contact Battat to receive a free replacement sketchboard.

For additional information, contact Battat toll-free at (866) 665-5524 between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or visit Battat’s website at www.battatco.com
