Certain Baby Accessories Are Being Recalled In Canada Which Caused The Death Of 1 Child

Approximately 248,069 units of the items were sold in the country.

Senior Writer

A new item has been added to Health Canada's list of consumer product recalls and it's due to a potential choking hazard.

On March 9, the government agency published an alert advising that those who have certain pacifier and bottle accessories sold with Calico Critters Flocked Animal Figures should stop using them immediately.

"The pacifier accessories were sold in yellow, orange, pink, dark pink, blue and teal colours," says the listing. "The bottle accessories were sold in yellow, pink, blue and orange colours. One style of the bottle has two yellow handles."

To see if you have the affected product, you can check the item number printed on the bottom of the product packaging to see if it matches those listed in the recall.

"The recall does not include item numbers listed below which were sold with accessories other than the pacifier and bottle accessories; only the bottle and pacifier accessories are being recalled," advises the government agency.

The item number and product description for the affected products are:
