Magnetic floating stackers have been recalled over concerns that the magnetic pieces of the toys could be ingested by children, officials said Thursday.
According to a news release issued by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission, the toys, manufactured by Tegu Holdings Inc., of Naples, Florida, “violate the mandatory standard for toy magnets because they contain magnets that can loosen and detach from the toy, posing an ingestion hazard to children.”
The CPSC said that magnets that are swallowed could attract each other or other metal objects. That could lead to the items getting lodged in a person’s digestive system, resulting in “perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death.”
