For Kid’s Sake Stay up to Date…February Recall Update!

I scream, you scream, we all scream…not for something as sweet as ice cream, but for rotten recalls! We know parents want to scream every time there’s a recall, which is more often than we like. But all you can do is stay up to date with product recalls, especially those products in your home. February’s recalls were split in half, so take a look at the continued list below and make sure your little one is not at risk.

To report a dangerous product or a product-related injury, call CPSC’s Hotline at (800) 638-2772 or CPSC’s teletypewriter at (301) 595-7054.
