Items You May Own That Have Been Recalled
Recalls typically happen on products when a safety issue has been identified. Over 900 million (that’s right- MILLION) products are recalled each year.  This is especially important for parents because we use so many different products with our kids, and some recalled products are a matter of life and death. We discovered a site, called Bonnie, which helps identify product recalls (in real time), and after doing some digging, I wanted so share some of the most common baby items that some of us probably own that have been recalled without us knowing. Honest Company WipesThe Honest Company has issued a recall of some of their baby wipes because somepackages might contain moldy wipes.
