It&#8217;s not a mammoth recall &#8211; only about 900 units &#8212; but it&#8217;s been discovered that the metal used in the bracelets and in the clasps for the pacifier clips contains a high level of lead. And just in case you&#8217;re not up on the latest in 20th century pediatrics, lead poisoning can really screw your kids up.<\/p>\n<p>Allreds has already received one report of a 10-month-old child who received treatment for elevated lead levels due to their products.<\/p>\n<p>The bracelets being recalled were sold in the following sizes: 0-6 months, 1-4 years, and 4-8 years of age. <\/p>\n<p>Both the baby bracelets and pacifier clips have crystal and plastic beads in various colors with a metal clasp.<\/p>\n<p>The recalled product was sold through in retail stores nationwide from June 2008 through December 2008.<\/p>\n<p>If you are in possession of one of these recalled products, you should immediately take them away from children and contact Allreds Design for instructions on how to receive a replacement bracelet or pacifier clip: (866) 695-3551 between 9 a.m. and 4 p.m. ET, Monday through Friday.<\/p>\n<p>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/cpscpub\/prerel\/prhtml10\/10139.html\" >Allreds Design Recalls Baby Bracelets and Pacifier Clips Due to Risk of Lead Exposure<\/a> [CPSC]<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/cpscpub\/prerel\/prhtml10\/10139a.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/cpscpub\/prerel\/prhtml10\/10139b.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.cpsc.gov\/cpscpub\/prerel\/prhtml10\/10139c.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Take a look at this cute little baby bracelet made by Allreds Design (also known as Hidden Hollow Beads) of Utah.
