"Kidsite" Jewelry Sold at Kmart

February 23, 2007
Children's "Kidsite" jewelry sold at Kmart is being recalled. The necklace and earring sets contain high levels of lead. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.

The children's necklace and earring sets have birthstones made of plastic gemstones in various colors. The pendants on the necklaces are shaped like flowers on a silver-colored chain. The matching pierced earrings have round birthstones. The month of the birthstone and "Kidsite" are printed on the front of the products' packaging. Kmart is printed on the back.

The rings were sold exclusively at Kmart stores nationwide from October 2001 through December 2006 for about $5.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled product away from children and return it to any Kmart store to receive one of three free children's jewelry sets.

Consumer Contact: For additional information, contact Kmart at (800) 659-7026 between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. CT, Monday through Friday, or visit Kmart's Web site at www.kmart.com.

The recall is being conducted in cooperation with the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC).
