A major recall has been issued on McDonald's Happy Meal activity wristbands.

Recently, McDonald's had decided to stop selling the children's fitness tracker initially, but now 32.6 million of the Happy Meal toys are being recalled.

The wristbands look a lot like what adults might wear, but they're reportedly giving kids skin irritations and burns. The Step It! Activity Bands were available in the U.S. and Canada.

The Consumer Product Safety Commission says 70 incidents have been reported, including seven reports of blisters, after wearing the wristbands.

If your child has one, you can take them back to any Mcdonald's and they'll replace it with a toy and a yogurt tube or bag of apple slices.

For more information on this recall, contact McDonald's at 800-244-6227 from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. ET or online at www.McDonalds.com.
