Here are the product recalls New Jerseyans should know about this week:
Glow in Dark Party Supplies Toy Sets Recalled Due to Ingestion Hazard; Violation of Federal Regulations for Battery-Operated Toys; Sold Exclusively on Amazon.com by OleOleToy
Hazard: The recalled Glow in Dark Supplies Toy Sets violate the mandatory federal battery-operated toy regulation because the Bunny Ears Headbands found in the sets contain button cell batteries that can be easily accessed without requiring the use of a common household tool. When button cell batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death, posing an ingestion hazard to children.
Remedy: Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled Bunny Ears Headbands found in Glow in Dark Party Supplies Toy Sets and take them away from children. Consumers should cut the battery compartment off the Bunny Ears Headbands and contact OleOleToy for instructions on how to receive a full refund. Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local procedures for hazardous household waste. Amazon is notifying all known purchasers directly.
