Recall issued for over 216K baby and kids clothing items sold at Walmart Canada

If you recently bought a sleeper for your baby or child at a  Walmart Canada store, it may be subject to a recall due to a choking hazard.

According to Health Canada, a recall has been issued for certain George Brand Sleepers sizes 0-5T.

The health agency notes that the issue with the sleepers is with the zipper pulls and foot grips which “may fall off or be removed through repeated washing, posing choking and ingestion hazards.”
