The Week in Recalls 4/6 - 4/12

by Bill on April 12th, 2008

Here is a recap of the child-related product recalls from the Consumer Product Safety Commission between 4/6/08 and 4/12/08. I think the theme this week is, if a product gets anywhere near your child’s mouth, double check the nature of the materials and how well they’re assembled.
