Baby Product Recalled for High Levels of Lead


900 bracelets for babies and pacifier clips have been recalled because they contain high levels of lead. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission, a 10-month-old girl received medical treatment for elevated lead levels after being exposed to one of the baby bracelets.

The bracelets were manufactured in the U.S. by Allred Design, under the name Hidden Hollow Beads. They were sold by resale and consignment stores round the country between June and December 2008.

Owners of the recalled items can call the company for a free replacement at 866-695-3551, or go to the CPSC'c website: http://www.cpsc.gov
