PapaBear children's pajamas recalled for violating flammability standards
Feb 28, 2012 4:30 PM

More than 10,000 sets of PapaBear Loungeabout children's pajamas are being recalled by its importer, Papa Bear Loungeabouts, LLC, of Los Angeles, Calif. The children's sleepware, made of 100% cotton fabrics, violate federal safety standards for flammability and pose a risk of burn injury to children, said the U.S. Consumer Products Safety Commission.

There have been no injuries reported to date, but the CPSC advises consumers to stop using the sub-standard children's pajamas and return the product to retailers for a refund, exchange or store credit.

The recall involves all styles of Papa Bear pajama sets (tops and bottoms), separate pajama pants and nightgowns sold in boys and girls sizes 0-6X and 7-14.

The sleepwear was available in a variety of styles, colors and novelty print designs. And a garment label with the name "Papa Bear Loungeabouts" and a picture of a bear is sewn into the center back neckline on the outside of the garments.
