Two items that were considered unique or unusual have been removed from the market before the holiday season.

As the holiday season approaches, two popular novelty items have been recalled due to safety concerns. The first item is a boxed game called Jishaku: The Game of Magnetic Action, which was being sold by online vendor Booktopia. The game includes a foam playing surface and small black magnets, which do not comply with the permanent ban on small, high-powered magnets, according to Product Safety Australia.

The recall notice states that there is a serious risk of internal injuries or even death if a child swallows more than one of these magnets, as they can stick together and cause harm in the child's intestine or other digestive tissue. There is also a risk of choking, which could result in injury or death. As a precaution, consumers are advised to immediately stop using the game and keep it out of reach of children. They can contact Booktopia for a refund and further instructions by calling 1300 187 187 or emailing [email protected].

Another recall notice has been issued for a Halloween light-up fairy floss bucket from Treat Me. The bucket contains two CR1220 lithium button batteries, which do not comply with safety standards for products with button batteries, according to Product Safety. The recall notice states that the product has not been tested for compliance and the batteries may not be adequately secured, making them accessible to young children.

In addition, the bucket does not come with the required warning information. This poses a risk of choking, severe internal burn injuries, or even death if a child swallows the batteries or inserts them into their body. It is important for owners to take action immediately by posting the product back to Treat Me at PO Box 14, Highbury, South Australia 5089 for a full refund, including the cost of postage. Once the bucket has been sent back, consumers should email their bank details to [email protected] to receive their refund.
