    The product, in the report: 7” Glow Stick

    I was taking my 2 year old granddaughter to her other grandmothers’. My granddaughter was in the backseat buckled in her car seat. She was playing with a “glow stick” she had received at a family fun day event. She said uh oh. I turned around immediately to see what the problem was. She had broken the glow stick and a shinyglowish substance came out of it. Before I could pull over and get to her--she had rubbed her eyes. I grabbed a bottle of water I had in my car and began rinsing her eyes the best I could. I called 911 for the poison control number. I called them--they told me to run cold water over her eyes for 15 minutes. I was only about 1/2 mile from her other grandmothers. I took her in and ran water the best I could trying to hold down a screaming 2 year old that was in pain---not an easy task. Her eyes remained very irritated for a couple of hours. There was no identification on the glow stick & I had a very difficult time finding which “station” that had given them out. I just found out it was the Asthma foundation. They had given them out in bags with candy & info. After quite a bit of researching--they found out they had gotten them from Oriental Trading Co. I went on the web site but couldn’t find any that looked like them. I work for Human Services and did not think much about her having it because she is very smart and I had told her not to put it in her mouth--she did not. My concern it that how many other little ones out there could have the same thing happen--especially families that are not as cautious me. I work with families that do not supervise their children much at all. The other concern I have is that there was no way to trace these----I have tried for weeks. Poison Control told me it was a mild caustic filling in them. How am I or anyone else supposed to be sure of that--especially looking at recalls because of lead paint--etc.Thank you for your time and concern. I love your web site. [REDACTED]

    The product, in the report: Glow Holiday Swizzle lightstick

    My 3 year old son received an Oriental Trading Company Glow Holiday Swizzle lightstick in a goodie bag when he went to see Santa. He was playing with it after it was activated and broke it open and it splattered in his face. The chemicals got in his eyes and nose and he screamed and cried for at least 10 minutes while I tried to rinse it out with water. He kept saying it was burning and seemed to be in severe pain. He was eventually ok.
