Safety Recall: 12 Models of Kolcraft Infant Play Yards

September 27, 2007

Bad Dad's Safety WarningNearly 425,000 infant play yards by Kolcraft Enterprises, of Chicago Illinois, are being recalled recalling following the death of a child.

A 10-month old boy was strangled on the changing table’s restraint strap that was hanging down into Kolcraft’s “Sesame Beginnings” Travel Play Yard where the child was located.

Manufactured in China and sold in the United States, the play yards were sold at retail stores nationwide from January 2001 through September 2007 for between $50 and $130.

All of the play yards have raised changing tables with a restraint strap that forms a loop beneath the changing table, posing a strangulation hazard to a child in the play yard.

The recalled Kolcraft models include:

  • Kolcraft Travelin’ Tot,
  • Kolcraft Travelin’ Tot LTD
  • Kolcraft Travelin’ Tot 3-in-1
  • Kolcraft Travelin’ Tot 4-in-1
  • Carter’s Lennon Travelin’ Tot
  • “Sesame Beginnings” by Kolcraft Travel Play Yard
  • Jeep Sahara SE Play Yard
  • Jeep Sahara Limited Play Yard
  • Jeep Sahara XT Play Yard
  • Jeep Sahara Limited SE Play Yard

  • Contours 3-in-1 Play Yard (with rocking cradle and changing table restraint strap)
  • ACTION: Parents and caregivers should immediately stop using the changing tables and rocking cradle and contact the firm for instructions on receiving a free repair kit.
