** Deadly Ingestion Hazard **

Description:
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using the light-up Nativity set toys, which are labeled as “Nativity Advent Calendar.” The Nativity set toys, which contain button cell batteries, violate the mandatory federal standard for toys because the compartment that holds the batteries can be easily accessed and opened by children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard to children.

If button cell or coin batteries are swallowed, they can cause serious injuries, including internal chemical burns and death.

CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Shenzhenshiyufandianzishangwuyouxiangongsi, doing business as Shipeng Zhuo, of China, but the firm has not agreed to an acceptable recall or to offer a remedy to consumers. 

The Nativity sets were sold online on Amazon from August 2024 through March 2025 for about $37. The toys may have also been sold on other websites or by other sellers. The sets are a Christmas theme light-up toy, which contains 25 pieces including various Nativity scene characters, animals, props and a light-up manger. The battery compartment of the manger contains three LR44 alkaline button cell batteries. On the front of the box, the product is labeled “Nativity Advent Calendar”. The product number “ST-012s” is on the bottom of the box. 

These products were manufactured in China.

CPSC urges consumers to stop using the Nativity set toys immediately and dispose of them. Button cell and coin batteries are hazardous. The battery in the manger that comes with the set should be disposed of or recycled following local hazardous waste procedures. Do not sell or give away these hazardous Nativity sets.
