ToyTexx Portable Magnetic Strategy 20 Magnet Kit with Rope & Storage Bag recalled due to ingestion hazard

Issue

Health Canada's sampling and evaluation program has determined that the magnets do not meet the performance criteria assessed for small powerful magnets set out in Table 3 of the general prohibitions under the Canada Consumer Product Safety Act. 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 March 17, 2026, the company has received no reports of incidents or injuries in Canada.
