Children's Watering Cans Sold Exclusively at Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores
The notice asks people to return it — see below for how.
What’s wrong
The beak of the watering can contains lead in the paint, which violates the federal law prohibiting lead paint on children's toys. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
The Recall Registry rates this highest risk — Lead exposure risk.
