There have been no reports of injuries.
Anyone with one of the four affected products – purchased at Vera Bradley retail stores or online between September 2012 to January – should return them for a full refund.
The affected toys are a bear ring rattle that has a white teddy bear head, arms attached to an O-shaped body with a green, blue, brown and pink crisscross pattern design rattle.
Three 10-inch bunnies sold in three printed patterns are also part of the recall:
