What's being recalled

This recall involves the Tangame busy houses. The Montesssori toy house is a wooden activity center cube-shaped toy that measures 20 inches high by 12.5 inches wide by 12.5 inches deep with storage. It has four, black caster wheels at the bottom. Activities on the sides of the house include a xylophone, an abacus, a telephone, a clock, a wheel, lights, gears, latches and others.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The yellow-painted metal zipper contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint ban, posing a lead poisoning hazard; the orange plastic phone cord contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban; and the horn's blue plastic bulb contains a regulated phthalate that exceed the prohibition of specific phthalates. Phthalates and lead are toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health issues.
