What's being recalled

This recall involves Minecraft Light-Up Slap Ruler Bracelets, Models 718508MCR and 718075MCR. The bracelets come in pink and green. The "MINECRAFT" logo is printed on the front of the packaging and the model number is printed on the back of the packaging. The bracelets include three pre-installed button cell batteries.

The problem, in CPSC's words

The battery compartment of the recalled light-up ruler bracelets can be opened easily by children, allowing access to the button cell batteries, violating the battery-operated toys requirements under the mandatory standard for toys. If a child swallows a button cell or coin battery, it can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns or death.
