CPSC creates online Crib Information Center


In the recent edition of the Safety Review, CPSC's monthly online newsletter, one article highlights all the crib recalls over the past few years -- over five million cribs, play yards and bassinets. CPSC has posted a Crib Information Center on their site, not only listing all the recent sleep environment recalls, but posting additional crib safety information for parents.

One important safety reminder was left out-- if you have problems with your crib -- hardware loose or broken, slats that break or come loose, mattress supports that fail, or dropsides that don't work correctly -- stop using it and report it immediately to the CPSC and the manufacturer. That action might save a baby's life. You can learn more from KID's Safe Sleep flyer.
