DescriptionThis recall involves the Make Believe Ideas Groovy Baby 'I Spy a Fly!' board book. The board book is identified by ISBN: 9781836422594 marked on the back cover of the book above the bar code. The book has a green frog with orange netting on the front cover. The final page shows an image of a purple fly with googly eyes and four iridescent plastic wings.

Issue

The fly’s wings on the last page of the book may in some instances detach from the book when pulled, posing a potential choking hazard. Removing the wings from the book permanently eliminates the potential hazard from the book. As of September 9, 2026, the company has received no reports of incident or injury in Canada.

What you should do

  • Consumers should immediately stop using the recall product, pull the wings off the last page of the book, cut each wing into four pieces, and take a photograph of the 16 pieces on or next to the last page of the book before disposing of the pieces in a trash bin that is inaccessible to children. Consumers should contact Make Believe Ideas and submit the photograph confirming destruction for a refund.
