Children's Light-Up Toy Recall Expands to 245,124 Items Nationwide Due to Battery Hazard

Children’s Light-Up Toy Recall Expanded, Over 245,000 Items Affected Nationwide
The Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) announced an expansion of a recall for children’s light-up toys, now affecting 245,124 items. ZMC Group recalled these battery-powered toys because they violate mandatory safety standards for children’s toys. The toys contain button cell batteries that children can easily access, posing a risk of serious injury or death if swallowed.
This expanded recall includes the initial 124,560 items previously identified. The CPSC stated that if button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns, and death.

The specific recalled items include:
