WASHINGTON, D.C. (July 9, 2009)—A million play yards are being recalled because their side rails can fail to latch properly, posing a fall hazard the children, U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission says.

The play yards were sold under the Koolcraft, Carter’s Sesame Street, Jeep, Countours, Care Bear and Eric Carle brands at major retailers including Wal-Mart, Kmart, Sears and Target from January 2000 through January 2009.
