The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), in cooperation with eeBoo, issued a voluntary recall of the popular Tot Tower toy blocks because the plastic covering can detach from the blocks and can be a choking hazard.

We have these blocks (the ABC ones), but fortunately the boys haven't chewed on them much. In any case, I just sent an email to eeBoo and will update once they write back. I think you have to return them to the store or send them back to eeBoo (which is a pain). Recalls should be made easier for consumers, especially with the recent frequency.

You can contact them by phone or email (safety@eeboo.com)
(800) 791-5619 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. ET Monday through Friday

More details can be found on the CPSC recall page.
