Cabbage Patch Dolls
Mattel has announced that it will attach warning labels to all Cabbage Patch
Snacktime Kids dolls following reports of children getting their hair and
fingers caught in the doll's mouth. The warning will inform parents that "long
hair and fingers can get caught in the doll's mouth" and it will tell
consumers that the doll's chewing action can be stopped immediately by removing
the backpack. Mattel is aware of about 35 incidents (some reported nationwide)
where a child's hair or finger became a "snack" for the doll. Call
1-800-524-TOYS for more information.
