The masks were sold only at Target stores in August and September and cost about $1. The masks are green with yellow eyeholes and a thin, red mouth. Green elastic bands fastened the mask behind the child's head.
The UPC code 06626491474 is printed on a label attached to the mask.
Customers should immediately take masks from children and return them to any Target store for a refund.
