The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, in cooperation with My Clothes Inc., of Montgomery, Ala., has announced a voluntary recall of children’s pajamas. Consumers should stop using recalled products immediately unless otherwise instructed.
The pajamas fail to meet the federal flammability standards for children’s sleepwear, posing a risk of burn injury to children.
Two types of pajamas are being recalled: a long-sleeved nightgown and a set consisting of a long-sleeved shirt and long pants. The long-sleeved nightgown, Style 14, is cotton knit with multi-colored polka dots. The sleeves and hem are ruffled. The shirt and pants set, Style 15 or Style 314RG, is cotton with a red and white gingham print pattern and white piping on the collar, sleeves and pant legs. The shirt has four buttons. The garments were sold in sizes 12 months through size 14. The style number and the words “PJs by My Clothes” are printed on tags sewn into the center back of the gown, the neck of the shirt and the rear waistband of the pants.
The pajamas were sold at children’s boutiques and specialty retailers and online nationwide from August 2011 through December 2011 for between $35 and $45.
Children should stop wearing the recalled sleepwear immediately and consumers should return it to the retailer where they purchased the pajamas for a full refund, exchange or store credit.

We should always practice being responsible parents to avoid any accidents or mishaps that might occur as a result of what we have bought our children. There are accidents that just cannot be prevented but things like our children’s clothing most especially pajamas are something that we can do something about. We have to choose wisely and carefully while choosing the ones that would match our children’s personalities.
