Mother’s Day is all about showering our matriarchs with love.
It is also the perfect time to make the moms in our life aware of recent children’s product recalls that could be important to know.
Going fishing? Concerns over lead cause Lil Anglers fishing rods recall
Spending an afternoon fishing can be a fun activity for the entire family. Getting out of the house and enjoying the fresh air while enjoying a relaxing day by the water is a great outing after a long week.
When going fishing, it is important to pack the essentials. Fishing rods, lures, reels, bait and, dare I say, sandwiches, all must make the trip. What a parent doesn’t expect, however, is that their child’s fishing rod won’t be safe to use.
Last month, Lil Anglers announced a recall of around 78,500 children’s fishing rods with Kid Casters No Tangle Combos sold in the United States over concerns they contain lead levels exceeding the federal lead content ban.
Consumers who purchased the recalled children’s fishing rods should take them away from kids and return them to Lil Anglers to either receive a full refund or a replacement fishing rod free of charge.

No monkey business: Plush Monkey toys recalled over choking hazard concerns
If there is one thing children love most, aside from their moms, of course, it is their toys. And, as doting mothers do, they want to get the perfect plaything for their little one.
What moms don’t want, however, is to purchase a toy that could cause harm. Safety, as always with children, is the No. 1 priority.
Safety issues caused Diamond Visions to initiate a recall late last month for around 6,000 of its Screaming Plush Monkey toys over concerns they could pose a choking hazard.
Anyone who purchased the recalled monkey plush toys should immediately take them away from children and contact Diamond Visions to receive instructions on how to obtain a full refund.

Bacteria contamination concerns leads to Gerber powdered infant formula recall
Moms take the health of their baby seriously, and a big part of a child’s well-being includes a nutritious diet free of harmful bacteria and toxins.
In March, Perrigo announced a recall for some lots of its Gerber brand Good Start SoothePro powdered infant formula over concerns the product may have been contaminated with cronobacter sakazakii.
The company says it initiated the recall “out of an abundance of caution,” and that none of the recalled products tested positive for the bacteria, nor has it received any reports of adverse events that would be connected to the recall.

Not fin-tastic: IKEA fishing game recalled over choking hazard concerns
Want to take the kiddos fishing but don’t live near a lake? Moms who find themselves in this situation can still enjoy trawling with their children without leaving the house. Just maybe not with this next recalled toy.
In April, IKEA initiated a recall for more than 27,000 Blavingad fishing games over concerns a small metal rivet within a wood play piece could come loose and present a choking hazard for children.
Individuals who purchased the recalled ocean-themed fishing game should immediately stop using it and contact IKEA directly to receive a full refund.

The Laundress fabric conditioners recalled over carcinogen concerns
The last thing a mother wants to expose her children and family to is carcinogens. When making purchases, product safety is sure to be a top priority.
The Laundress announced a recall of around 800,000 of its fabric conditioners last month over concerns they may contain a carcinogen.
The recalled Laundress fabric conditioners can contain ethylene oxide, a chemical impurity that can cause adverse health effects in the event of significant and direct long-term exposure.
Consumers who own any of the recalled Laundress fabric conditioner products should stop using them and to contact the company directly to receive directions on how to receive a full refund.

Clark Associates recalls high chairs that may break while in use
Getting your kids situated and ready to eat at the dinner table can be a tall task. Napkins and bibs are often a must, and, according to the age of the hungry little ones, a high chair may also be required.
In February, Clark Associates announced a recall of more than 22,000 of its Lancaster Table & Seating high chairs over concerns they could break and present a fall hazard for children using them.
The company received three reports of instances where the recalled high chairs broke while in use, however, it has not received reports of injury.
Consumers who own the recalled high chairs should immediately stop using them and return them for either a free replacement or store credit.

While I appreciate your interest in making a cutesy connection to Mother’s Day, you come across as sexist and completely tone deaf by saying “Moms should know.” Really? Only Moms? Are we back in the 1950s? The headline made me skip this story the first two times I saw it. But then I just got mad, read it, and was so annoyed by the article’s tone that it was hard to concentrate on the important information. You guys need to get your heads into the 21st Century.

THANK YOU.
Not only for calling out the absurdity of this post. Mostly thank you for not just saying “add me.” Not everyone has the same level of education. That said it’s just plain common sense that you can’t just comment add me to a random unmanned comment section.
