When the Parent Bloggers Network sent out a call for wacky warning labels, I knew it would be easy to find some crazy warnings. I remember once signing a lease with at least 5 pages of statements like “I will not hook up a washer to the kitchen sink.” The landlord had informed us that each statement was a situation that had come up where a tenant was trying to do what common sense should tell you is a bad idea.
I didn’t have to look too far to find some crazy warning labels. Here is my favorite. It is from Rae’s step stool she uses when she brushes her teeth.
It’s a great little stool, but I was surprised to read the warning label that stated it is not to be used as a car seat. I wonder the story behind that warning.
The kitchen bag warning was also an interesting read, reminding me not to use bags in a baby crib.
And finally also from the kitchen is the warning from the Ziploc storage containers that I highly recommend since they are so cheap and work well. Who would have guessed that after warming something up in a container in the microwave that it would be hot? Inconceivable!
There are some crazy warning labels on products no doubt. Sadly most have been placed by either someone doing the exact thing in the warning – like with my lease agreement – or someone sued the company over the product not warning them of the “danger.” Citizens Against Lawsuit Abuse sponsored this week’s fun blog blast to show the most off-the-wall warning label we could find. You can visit the Parent Bloggers Network to join in the fun. I just had to travel no further than my own kitchen and bathroom to find some crazy warning labels. It’s really not that hard once you actually start looking around.

Oh, my, when we used the stepstool that grandpa made, it didn’t have the warnings on it. Oh, no! How did our children survive?
I’m with Daisy. Frankly, it’s a wonder any of us are around nowadays to ridicule the outlandish warnings.

Awesome post! Seriously you give some top quality high content which is awesome. Thanks for sharing with us and keep it up!
sucks that lawyers have to make it so we have to state the obvious on everything
It makes you wonder what would happen if all of the crazy warning labels were removed from the packaging. OMG, how many of us would survive?
