FRIDAY, Sept. 29 (BabyCenter News) — Almar Sales is recalling about 11,000 of its Suave brand kids' bath sets in cooperation with the Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). The bath sets are dangerous in three ways: Items in the sets are small enough for young children to choke on, the handles on the sets' carrying cases are long enough to pose a strangulation hazard, and the kit comes in a plastic carrying case that poses a danger of suffocation.

The Suave brand bath sets contain a 3-in-1 shampoo, bath sponge, and various other toy animal and character bath products. The sets are packaged in brightly colored vinyl bags with a clear window. The style number of the recalled sets, including SVK 9498, 9499, 9501, 9506, 9507 or 9508, is printed on the back or bottom right corner of the package above the UPC code.

The sets were sold exclusively at Wal-Mart stores nationwide from March 2006 through June 2006 for about $10. They were made in China.
