New York, NY — The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) and Weeplay Kids LLC have recalled Carter’s Watch the Wear Bodysuits and Sleep ‘n Play Garments for choking hazards the clothing poses to infants and young children. The CPSC announced the nationwide product recall on February 3, 2012.

The recall was issued after discovering that the snaps can detach from the fabric of the clothing, which poses a choking hazard to infants and young children.

“This recall involves H.W.

The garments are pastel blue, pink and yellow, and packaged as solids, stripes and patterns. They are sold in packages of two, three or five,” reported the CPSC.

The following style numbers are affected in this recall:

• Watch the Wear Bodysuit: N8963LB, N8963LG, N8963LN, N8964B1, N8964B2, N8964G1, N8964G2, N8964LB, N8964LG, N8964LN, N8964N1, N8991LW
