 | More recalls of baby and toddler products this week, plus a new warning about crib safety from CPSC. It's frightening to think that the products you buy for your baby might cause harm, but some careful checking of recall lists (and a watchful eye over the items your baby is in contact with) can help prevent injuries. | |
Step 2 Riding Toy Recall
About 2.5 million riding toys from Step 2 are recalled because a pin attached to the yellow knob on the handle can loosen, allowing the handle to detach. Some of these riding toys are a decade old, so you may want to check the attic if you've been saving old toys for later use.
| Children's Giraffe Blankets Sold at Target Recalled
These sweet little giraffe blankets are being recalled because they pose a choking hazard. The blankets have a stuffed animal on top with a "lovey" type blanket on the bottom.
| New CPSC Warning on Drop-Side Cribs
The information in this warning isn't so new, but it's important enough that CPSC feels it's worth repeating. Drop-side cribs, especially older cribs, can have some structural and hardware problems that pose serious risks to your baby.
| What Should I Do When Baby Products Are Recalled?
There are lots of potential remedies for baby products recalls. Some can be handled at home (removing a drawstring), while some must be left to the manufacturer (crib repairs). Learn more about how to handle a recall that affects your baby.
