The Disney Store has recalled about 8,000 Tinker Bell wands. The paint on the pearl beads in the flowers of the wands contains excessive levels of lead.

The recalled wands are green and light up/produce sound when a button in the handle is pressed. The top of the wand has white plastic flowers, a green bow, and a pin with Tinker Bell's face on it.

These wands were manufactured in China and sold at Disney stores nationwide from April 2007 through October 2007 for about $13.

Consumers should immediately take the recalled toy away from children and return it to a Disney Store for a full refund. For additional information, contact Disney Store toll-free at (866) 902-2798 between 8:30 a.m. and 5 p.m. PT Monday through Friday or visit the firm's Web site at www.disneystore.com
