Walmart’s ‘Relax’ Science Kit Recalled Over Swallowing Risks

Hey there, folks! If you’ve grabbed a Wallmart’s science kit online recently, listen up. The U.S. (CPSC) Consumer Product Safety Commission, just dropped some news about those colorful magnetic balls in Walmart’s “Relax 5mm Science Kit.” Turns out, they’re causing a bit of trouble.

The CPSC flagged these little magnets as a serious risk for kids who might accidentally swallow them. The kit, exclusively sold on Walmart‘s website, is a cube of 216 tiny, strong magnets that go beyond what federal regulations allow. No bueno.

Now, no need to panic, but swallowing these magnets can lead to some serious problems like them sticking together in the digestive system. We’re talking perforations, twisting, blockage of the intestines, and even worse – infection, blood poisoning, and, yeah, death. Yikes.

The CPSC mentioned that the magnetic balls in these kits don’t play by the rules. They estimate that 2,400 cases of magnet ingestions were treated between 2017 and 2021 in emergency rooms. Plus, they know about seven deaths globally related to swallowing these kinds of magnets.
