Alarm before Halloween in the US: Emergency warning
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) recalled illuminated princess costumes and LED finger lights sold to children before Halloween. A usage warning was also issued for water bead toys.
According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC), during the February-June 2025 period, the battery compartment of CIYTI brand illuminated princess costumes sold on Amazon for $21–$35 can be easily opened by children. Buyers can request a full refund.
Approximately 6,533 units of BAMAMON brand LED finger lights sold were also recalled for failing to meet federal toy safety standards.
Warning for water‑beaded toys.
The CPSC urged that water‑beaded squishy toys distributed by Kaizou Group not be used. Swallowed beads can swell inside the body and cause intestinal blockage.
Officials recommend keeping the products away from children. For the princess costume, a return can be requested by contacting [email protected]. The batteries in the costume should be disposed of at appropriate hazardous‑waste collection points rather than household trash.
Important warning: If a child is suspected of swallowing a button cell, seek emergency medical help immediately, without waiting for symptoms.
