The string of LED lights connected to the skirts contains button cell batteries that can be easily accessed by children, posing an ingestion hazard. In addition, the products do not bear the required warnings.

Reese's Lawand CPSC regulations that implement it establish performance and warning label requirements for consumer products with button cell or coin batteries to protect children from life threatening ingestion. If a child swallows a button cell or coin battery, it can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns or death.

The skirts were sold in yellow with silver circles and stars on the outer layer. The battery compartment of the lights connected to the skirts contains three LR44 Alkaline button cell batteries. CPSC is aware that the skirts were also sold in the colors pink, rose red, red, blue and green.

These products were manufactured in China.

CPSC urges consumers to stop using the Kids Light Up Ballet Skirts immediately and dispose of them. Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. When disposing of or recycling button cell or coin batteries, do so in a manner that follows local hazardous waste procedures.
