Urgent Recall: Primark Little Bear Soother Clips Due to Choking & Laceration Hazards

KBD Attorneys is committed to keeping families informed about dangerous products that could harm children. The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has announced a recall of Primark Little Bear 2-Pack Soother Clips due to serious choking and laceration hazards. If you have one of these items in your home, read on — this recall could protect your child from injury.

What You Need to Know: The Recall Details

On December 11, 2025, the CPSC announced the recall of about 1,330 Primark Little Bear 2-Pack Soother Clips. These products were sold in Primark stores in the Northeast, Florida, Maryland, and Illinois between June 2025 and August 2025, and cost around $5 per pack.

Primark Little Bear Soother Clips are meant to clip a pacifier or soother to an infant’s clothing so it doesn’t fall on the ground. The product includes a cloth strap with small bear designs and a wooden button fastener.

However, the wooden button can detach from the strap, exposing a sharp screw that poses a serious hazard to infants and toddlers.

Reported Incidents: Real Injury Risks

The firm has received five reports of the wooden button detaching. In one particularly alarming report, a sharp screw was found in an infant’s mouth, posing a dangerous choking risk. In another case, a child suffered cuts to their arm from the exposed screw. U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission

These incidents underscore just how dangerous a small detached part can be when it ends up in a child’s mouth or against their skin. Because infants explore the world orally, a loose button or screw can quickly turn into an emergency situation.

Immediate Action: What Parents Should Do

If you bought these soother clips:

1. Stop using them immediately. Even if no incident has occurred, the risk is real.

2. Return the clips to any Primark store for a full refund. You do not need your receipt — the original form of payment will be reimbursed.

3. If you cannot visit a physical store, contact Primark’s recall page or customer service to arrange a refund.

4. Removing the recalled product from circulation can prevent further injuries — including choking and cuts — that could lead to emergency medical treatment or worse.

Why This Matters: Hidden Dangers in Everyday Products

Parents and caregivers trust that everyday baby gear has been tested and safely designed. But even simple items like soother clips can carry hidden risks when components detach or fail. Small parts like buttons and screws can become choking hazards, and sharp edges can lead to cuts and lacerations.

Children’s products are held to safety standards for good reason: infants are especially vulnerable due to their size, behavior, and developmental stage. A seemingly harmless accessory that breaks apart too easily puts children at risk in ways parents might not immediately recognize.

Legal Rights When Dangerous Products Harm Children

At KBD Attorneys, we not only report safety alerts — we help families understand their rights when a defective or dangerous product causes harm.

If your child was injured by a product that failed in a way it shouldn’t have — like these soother clips — you may have legal options. These may include claims against the manufacturer or seller for damages such as:

• Medical expenses

• Pain and suffering

• Emotional distress

• Future care needs

Some product defects can give rise to product liability claims, especially when companies fail to ensure safe design or adequate quality control. Our firm can consult with experts, review records, and help you determine whether legal action is appropriate based on your child’s injuries.

A Reminder to Stay Informed

This recall adds to a growing list of children’s products that have been pulled from the market due to hazards after they were already in circulation. Staying informed and acting quickly when recalls are announced is essential to protecting young children — who are among the most vulnerable consumers.

Primark’s Little Bear soother clip recall is a small but serious alert that highlights why vigilance matters. If your family has been affected, prioritizing your child’s safety and seeking appropriate medical attention takes precedence. Legal support is available if injury has occurred.

By staying alert, acting promptly, and spreading the word to other caregivers, you can help prevent further injuries from recalled products like these soother clips.
