We’re past the summer solstice, daytime is a tiny bit shorter, and you’re turning the lights on in the kids’ bedrooms just a few minutes earlier. A reminder: torching the house is a bad idea any time of the year. So if you’re still using one of the 360,000 recalled marine- and safari-themed animated lamps from Discovery Kids, get rid of it. 

The lamps were recalled in February after the importer, Inovage LLC, received nine reports of electrical problems; seven involved fires. Apparently a defect in the lamp’s printed circuit board can cause an electrical short.
