What happened

Pottery Barn Kids has recalled two wooden toys due to choking hazards.

The toy's handle also does not meet Federal Hazardous Substance Act requirements for baby rattle design and construction. The Ride-On Duck, a yellow wooden duck-shaped toy measuring 12 inches high by 20 inches long with orange wheels and bill, has a wheel cap that can break, allowing the wheel to separate and release small parts.

If you own either of these toys, you should immediately remove them from young children and return them to the store where you purchased them for either a refund or a replacement toy.
