Playskool Recalls Toy Tool Benches After 2 Toddler Deaths

Playskool and the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced the recall of about 255,000 Team Talkin' Tool Bench toys following the deaths of two young children, who suffocated when oversized plastic nails sold with the tool bench toys became forcefully lodged in the toddlers' throats. CPSC advises that consumers immediately take the two toy nails away from children and contact Playskool to get information on returning the nails for a $50 certificate for a Playskool (or its related companies’) product.
