Parents Be In The Know - Recalls

Yes, I've received a few recall notices today from CPSC, so please bare with me because I feel it is important to make parents aware. There are too many recalls to display pictures, so I will only type in the description along with the link to the recall notice. Each recall notice supplies a picture of the product on the very bottom of the document. Please take a look at all of these recalls and make sure you or your child do not have these products in your home.

  1. Kolcraft Recalls Play Yards After the Death of a 10-Month-Old Child. Check your portable play pen Link: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml07/07315.html

  3. Target Recalls Children’s Toy Gardening Tools and Chairs Due to Violation of Lead Paint Standard. This past Spring/Summer, I nearly purchased these gardening tools because it was the "Sunny Patch Friends" toy line. The only reason why I didn't get them is because they looked too big (for older children) and not for Katie's age. Link: http://www.cpsc.gov/cpscpub/prerel/prhtml07/07309.html
