Summary

Affected products
This voluntary recall involves the powerful magnets Be Amazing!-Magnetic Marvels consisting of various magnets in a kit. The UPC of the product is: 813268011073.
Issue
Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that the magnets do not meet the magnetic force requirements of the Toys Regulations and pose an ingestion hazard.
Small, powerful magnets can be easily swallowed by children of all ages, posing serious and potentially life-threatening risks.
When more than one powerful magnet is swallowed in a short period of time, the magnets can attract one another while moving through the intestines. This can cause the intestines to twist, creating blockages or tearing of the intestinal walls.
As of September 28th, 2023, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
