Don’t count on buyers always thinking about safety when selecting clothing for infants. You, as a smart consumer, must always be diligent. As we have talked about often on this blog, simple clothing without accessories that can pull off, are always the safest choice.

Once again cute clothing creates a choking hazard, as Target stores and Target.com announced a recall today for about 51, 700 white infant girls sandals. Although no injuries have been reported, some consumers reported that the small white plastic flowers that decorate the shoe can be detached, resulting in a small part. Small Parts are a serious choking hazard concern with children under three years of age.
The white Circo Aloma sandals have the Circo name embossed into the tread design of the sole of the footwear. The Circa line is excusive to Target and these particular sandals were sold in their stores nationwide and online from January thru May 2011. The sandals sold in infant sizes 2 -5 for $10 a pair.
If your precious little girl has a pair of these sandals, stop using them immediately and return them to any Target store for a refund. Target Guest Relations can be contacted Monday through Friday at (800) 440-0680 between 8 a.m. and 7 p.m.
Photos of the sandals are available here.
