More than half-a-million pajama sets and sleepers are being voluntarily recalled by the Consumer Product Safety Commission and Target Corporation for violating the federal flammability standards for children’s sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injuries to children. “It’s important that families know about this recall, and for children’s safety, return these items to the store for a refund,” said Commissioner William M. Rubenstein adding, “Flammability protection on children’s clothing is a fundamental safeguard intended to protect children from burns.”
The recall includes 42,000 Girls’ Circo Fleece Blanket Sleepers sold exclusively at Target and Target.com nationwide from August 2012 to October 2012 for about US $ 13 each.
