Hazard

The largest plastic castle block maker in the kit could crack at the handle during use, creating sharp edges that can pose a laceration hazard to young children.

What You Should Do

Remedy

Consumers should stop using the large blocks and immediately take these recalled toys away from children. Letters will be sent to each customer with a replacement large castle block maker and a return mailer enclosed. In addition, the notice will be posted in L.L. Bean retail stores and on its web site, and customers can return the kit to any retail store for a replacement.
