A children’s toy has been urgently recalled after fears the button batteries needed to use it could possibly kill a child.
My First Music Book Guitar is a board book that comes with an attached electronic toy guitar which plays music and sounds.
The item was sold at QBD Books across the nation and is powered by a button battery.
There are concerns as button batteries can present a risk of choking, severe internal burn injuries or death in young children if ingested.

The product was sold in QBD Books stores (pictured) and online across the nation between 18 February 2022 to 2 February 2023
The book did not contain the appropriate warning material that is required for products that contain the battery type.
Sold nationally and online between 18 February 2022 to 2 February 2023, consumers who have purchased the product should immediately stop using it and store out of children’s reach.

This comes as an urgent recall was issued on Friday for the Energizer A76 Miniature 1.5V Alkaline/Watch button batteries for similar reasons.


The product packaging did not have the required warning label advising consumers to store them out of children’s reach but it was covered by a sticker (pictured)
The battery packs, sold in packs of four, were taken off the market after being sold between May 5 to July 12 last year – failing to feature the required warning symbol on the packaging to advise customers to store them out of children’s reach.
However, it was not visible due to the warning being covered by a sticker on the back of the product’s packaging.
‘There is a risk of serious injury if the battery is swallowed or inserted in the body,’ Product Safety said.
Energizer button batteries were sold at a number of national chains across Australia and consumers have been advised to place the batteries out of children’s reach.
