Toy Recalls for June …
Here’s a few highlighted toy recalls for the month of June from the Consumer Product Safety Commission Website:
Remote-Controlled Helicopter Toys Sold Exclusively in Walgreens Recalled Due to Fire and Burn Hazards by TWIE. TWIE has received two reports of helicopters catching fire. No injuries or property damage have been reported. Consumers should immediately stop playing with the recalled helicopters and contact TWIE for a full refund. Returns will be accepted by TWIE. Walgreens will not accept returns or provide a refund. (very nice, Walgreens. Way to stand behind the products of death you sell).
Disney Store Recalls Tinker Bell Wands Due to Violation of Lead Paint Standard. The paint on the pearl beads in the flowers of the wands contains excessive levels of lead, violating the federal lead paint standard. Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and return it to a Disney Store for a full refund.
Kids Station Toys Recalls Little Tikes Toy Cell Phones Due to Choking Hazard. CPSC and the firm have received three reports of the toy breaking, including one report of a child beginning to choke on a small part. Consumers should take these toy phones away from young children immediately and contact the firm for instructions on obtaining a free replacement.
