The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission has announced a voluntary recall of the Learn-Around Playground activity centre manufactured by LeapFrog Enterprises.
The commission advised that LeapFrog has received 145 reports of children's arms becoming caught in the activity centre's plastic tube, resulting in 54 reports of minor scratches and bruises.
About 186,000 units were sold at department and toy stores across the United States and through online retailers from July 2005 through August 2006 for about $60.
Consumers should contact LeapFrog for a free repair kit.
