June 30, 2010, the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commision (CPSC) announced a voluntary recall of children’s jewelry which contains high levels of potentially dangerous Cadmium. Smilemakers Inc. has recalled about 66,200 children’s Happy Charm Bracelets and 2,200 Football Rings
The metal substrate in the jewelry contains high levels of cadmium. Cadmium is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects. No injuries have been reported
This recall involves “Happy” charm bracelets and football rings. The “Happy” charm bracelet is comprised of colorful beads on a small elastic band to which a metal charm in the shape of a butterfly, moon or sun is attached. The football ring is a small adjustable metal band to which a football charm (made of metal) is attached.
These products were distributed for free at doctor and dentist offices nationwide from June 2005 through March 2010 for free.
The CPSC reminds that consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed. It is illegal to resell or attempt to resell a recalled consumer product.
