According to the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, OKK Trading is pulling 25,000 of the $1 to $2 LED headbands because of their three coin batteries. Investigators said children can easily swallow them, which can cause serious injuries and death.

The recall was issued Thursday and affects three models:

Model 46310 in white, light pink, dark pink, turquoise, purple and red and features felt multicolor polka dots on the ears.

Model 46309 is in white, light pink, turquoise and purple and features fluffy ears and light fur along the band.

Model 44694 is available in white with dark pink, light blue, red or light pink satin ear lining with a fluffy white backing and band.
