Fisher Price Campsite

EAST AURORA, N.Y. - Fisher-Price has recalled its Little People Play ‘n Go Campsite toy, after receiving eight reports of the plastic Sonya Lee figure breaking.

About 96,000 campsites were sold in the U.S. and 14,000 in Canada, from October 2009 through August 2010 for about $15. They were carried by major retailers including mass merchandisers, discount stores, department stores and toy stores nationwide and in Puerto Rico, and by online retailers
The plastic Sonya Lee figure in the play set can break at the waist, exposing small parts that pose a choking hazard to young children.
The seven-piece plastic play set includes Sonya Lee, a tent and other accessories. Product number R6935 is printed on the toy's packaging. The name Sonya Lee is printed on the underside of the figure. Only Sonya Lee figures that bend at the waist, have a green sweater and purple camera around the neck are included in this recall. No other Sonya Lee figure is affected. The remaining pieces of the Little People Play 'n Go Campsite are not affected.
Consumers should immediately take the Campsite's Sonya Lee figure away from children and contact Fisher-Price to arrange for the figure's return in exchange for a free replacement figure. Fisher-price can be contacted at 800-432-5437 or  www.service.mattel.com.
