Jardine Crib Recall - Expansion of Previous Recalls
There are seven models in this recall, so check carefully to make sure your child's crib isn't affected. Cribs were sold at Babies "R" Us as well as other stores in that same family -- online and brick-and-mortar -- from Sept. 2005 through April 2009 for around $200-300. Unfortunately there's no full refund available, but you will receive a credit toward the purchase of a new crib.

Kolcraft Play Yards Recalled
Nearly 1 million of these play yards are being recalled by Kolcraft because, according to the CPSC, "play yard’s side rail can fail to latch properly and when a child pushes against the rail it can unlatch unexpectedly, posing a fall hazard to children." There have been 347 reports of the sides falling with 21 injuries. Models included are branded under several different names including Jeep, Carter's, Sesame Street, Eric Carle, Care Bear and Contours (pictured here). Kolcraft is sending out free repair kits if you call 866-594-4208 (any time) or fill out the form on their Web site. Be sure to have your model number and date of manufacture handy (see the full list of model numbers here - there are a lot).

All Nuby Gel Filled Teething Rings Recalled
The FDA ran a test on these gel filled teethers and found that some contained bacteria that could cause illness in children with weakened immune systems if they come in contact with the gel. The bacteria found (Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus circulans) don't normally cause illness, but all the teethers are being recalled nevertheless. You can return them to the place of purchase for a full refund.Baby Hammocks Recalled
These baby hammocks are branded as La Siesta Yayita Baby Hammocks or just Yayita Baby Hammocks and were previously recalled in Aug. 2008. This update includes two new places of purchase: Kaplan Early Learning and Nova Natural Toys and Crafts. The hammock can flip over causing a fall hazard or a strangulation hazard if a baby gets hung up in the seat's straps. Kaplan (800-334-2014) is offering a credit toward another purchase and Nova Naturals (877-668-2111) is offering a free replacement hammock.
