Hazard
The magnetic maze board's plastic wand can separate and expose a magnet that can be a choking hazard to children. Also, if a child has more than one of these toys and the magnets detach and are swallowed, the magnets can attract each other and cause intestinal perforations or blockages, which can be fatal.
Remedy
Consumers should immediately take this toy away from children and contact Lakeshore to receive a free replacement product.
Incidents & injuries
Lakeshore has received ten reports of wands separating and magnets detaching. No injuries have been reported.
