I actually love the Cherokee brand, so this is upsetting. Apparently the sleeper buttons have too much lead. See details here.

The CBC has a great site of product recalls, one that gets updated so often — which is really disturbing — it’s hard to keep up. Visit the site to see the latest, including wooden blocks and train sets,  remote-controlled cars, and dollar store glue guns that shock users then catch fire.

(Note to self: Do not buy electric items from dollar store.)

And don’t forget about our extensive list of safety and support groups in Durham and beyond, found here.
