Plain-English summary

Jo-Ann Stores Inc. is recalling approximately 6,000 Robbie Ducky™ Kids Watering Cans sold exclusively at Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Stores nationwide from February 2007 through August 2007. The recalled product is a yellow watering can with an orange beak, measuring about 10 inches high by 6 inches wide, and features a sticker on the bottom reading "Robbie Ducky™ Garden Collection Duck Watering Can." The cans were manufactured in China and sold for about $10.

The recall is due to a violation of the federal law prohibiting lead paint on children's toys. The beak of the watering can contains lead in the paint. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects. No injuries have been reported in connection with this recall.

Consumers should immediately take the watering can away from children and return it to any Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft Store for a full refund. For additional information, consumers can contact Jo-Ann Stores Inc. toll-free at (888) 739-4120 ext. 7 between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. ET Monday through Friday, or email [email protected].
