Target recalls popular sleepwear due to alarming fire safety concerns

If you’ve recently purchased pyjamas for your grandkids from Target Australia, then you need to read this.

The retail chain has issued an urgent recall of certain children’s pyjama sets due to serious fire safety concerns - with potentially devastating consequences.



The affected garments don't meet sizing safety rules for children's nightwear because they are a loose fit and could pose a fire risk if worn or put close to heat or flames.

The products affected are select long-sleeved cotton rib tops and cotton pant pyjama sets. The recall specifically affects the 'Bambi' and 'heart' sets of a cream top and pink pants, as well as a pink 'bunny' set.

These pyjamas were sold between January 5 and March 8 this year. It’s especially important to confirm these were not purchased as themed Easter pyjamas for your grandkids.



If you purchased a set of the affected pyjamas, then you should return them to Target immediately. Alternatively, you may contact the company for a refund.

With the strict regulations around these products, how does this happen? I'm also wondering why someone would let their child so close to open fire that they may catch fire. Just wondering.
