BLOG EXTRA: Recall of the Day
A company called Spin Master is recalling 4.2 million units of a craft toy called Aqua Dots, of course, made in China. According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, children become unconscious after swallowing the craft beads. Apparently, the beads have toxins in them, which are very similar to the contents of so-called date rape drugs! Children could become comatose, develop breathing problems or even have seizures if they swallow these beads. Two children were reportedly hospitalized in separate incidents. Do not keep these defective products in your home any longer. Consumers may contact Spin Master at 800-622-8339 to get a replacement toy or visit their Web site for more information.
