A popular "jumper" toy is being recalled because of a potential impact hazard, according to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission.
About 400,000 Baby Einstein Musical Motion Activity Jumpers are being recalled. A yellow sun toy attached to the jumper's seat frame by a flexible stalk can rebound with force and injure the infant inside.
Atlanta-based Kids II Inc. has received about 100 reports of incidents, including 61 injuries. A 7-month-old boy sustained a lineal skull fracture and an adult sustained a chipped tooth. Other injuries included bruises and lacerations to the face.
The jumpers are stationary activity centers with a support seat covered in blue fabric that is attached to a large, white metal frame. The jumper includes a variety of brightly colored toys around the seat, including the sun toy.
The Baby Einstein Musical Motion Activity Jumpers with model number 90564 are being recalled. The model number can be found on a tag attached to the underside of the seat.
The recall includes jumpers made before November 2011. The following date codes, which can be found on the lower right corner of the sewn-in label on the back of the blue seat pad, are included in the recall: OD0, OE0, OF0, OG0, OH0, OI0, OJ0, OK0, OL0, OA1, OB1, OC1, OD1, OE1, OF1, OG1, OH1, OI1, OJ1 and OK1.
The jumpers were sold at Amazon.com, Target, Toys R Us and other stores between May 2010 and May 2013. They retail for about $90.
