The magnet can easily be detached from the square shape, generating a small part with a high magnet flux. If a child swallows the small magnet and other metallic objects, they could attract one another causing intestinal blockage or perforation or choking. The product does not comply with the requirements of the Toy Safety Directive and the relevant European standard EN 71-1.
