I am so sorry this is a little behind when you look at the articles date - I was away for a few days. Please read the article and follow the instructions - this is only an advisory but those need just as much attention as recalls in some instances. Click here for the full article. |

The risk assessment on these magnet sets has informed Health Canada's determination that they are a danger to human health and safety because they contain small powerful magnets which can be easily swallowed or inhaled by children. Unlike other small objects that would be more likely to pass normally through the digestive system if swallowed, when more than one small powerful magnet is swallowed, the magnets can attract one another while travelling through the digestive system. The magnets can then pinch together and create a blockage and slowly tear through the intestinal walls, causing perforations. These sleepers are made of 100% cotton and therefore do not meet government safety standards as this poses a fire hazard for the infant. The sleepers are loose fitting and according to the recall could come into contact with an ignition source.
