The text below is quoted from the CPSC notice word for word.

What was recalled: This recall involves five styles of Chewbeads Baby pacifier clip holders. The "Where's the Pacifier?" pacifier clips styles include shapes of a Butterfly, Dinosaur, Heart, Sheriff Badge and a white baseball with red stitching and a major league baseball team logo. "Chewbeads baby" is imprinted in raised letters on the rubber shape attachment. The pacifier clips have eight multi-colored beads threaded through a narrow satin ribbon that attaches to a pacifier on one end and a plastic D-ring on the other. The clip and beads are about six inches long. The garment clip has the following number code on the back of the plastic clip: 3/31/14, 08/08/14, 12/01/14, 14/30/09, 15/02/09, 25/04/14.
The hazard: The "D" ring on the pacifier clip can break, allowing beads to detach, posing a choking hazard.
Injuries: The firm has received seven reports of the beads detaching. No injuries have been reported.
The remedy: Consumers should immediately take these recalled pacifier clips away from young children and contact Chewbeads for a free replacement pacifier clip or a refund of the purchase price.
