Hazard

The toy has small parts (magnets) with a high magnetic flux. The magnets can be easily detached from the balloon halves by pushing them through the silicone layer. A child may put the magnets in the mouth, which may lead to choking, or if swallowed, they could attract one another, causing intestinal blockage or perforation. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive nor with the European standard EN 71-1.
