Surface paint on the wooden toys contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
No incidents or injuries have been reported.
This recall involves Adam the Apple children’s stackable toys that have 15 wooden pieces with a story written on each piece. They measure about 6 inches tall and 6.5 inches wide when stacked and look like a happy-faced red apple with a leaf on top.
The phrases "Adam The Apple, By Chris Bayon" and "Illustrated by Patrick Carlson" are written on the leaf.
The toys, manufactured in India, were sold online at www.stackemupbooks.com from June 2021, through November 2021, and at the Philadelphia Gift Show in July 2021, for about $25. The products were also given away at the Philadelphia Gift Show.
