A horrified mother has urged parents to check their purchases for hidden dangers after she discovered a sewing needle in a Kmart pram toy.
A Cairns mother has urged parents to inspect their children’s toys for hidden dangers after she found a sewing needle (pictured) lodged inside a pram hanger she bought from Kmart
The Cairns woman bought an Anko brand toy pram hanger from the retail giant for her baby to play with.
But once she had already taken it home, she found a sharp needle lodged within a cloth bird.
‘Found this needle in toy pram hanger,’ she wrote on Facebook, alongside a photo of the needle.
‘Bub was playing with it and I felt something hard in the bird.
‘Thought I hadn’t cut the plastic off properly so I gave it a little wiggle around and poked out this needle.
‘Looks like a manufacturer’s error with the machine as the needle is broken at the top, but just wanted to put a post up in case.
‘Please, please check yours if you’ve got one.’
The concerned mother said she had contacted Kmart.
A Kmart spokesperson told Daily Mail Australia the incident was under investigation.
‘At Kmart, the health and safety of all our products are our number one priority,’ they said.
‘We are extremely concerned in learning of this and we are liaising directly with the customer to investigate further in understanding the source of the item identified.’
