On July 31, 2025, Tegu recalled over 25,000 Magnetic Floating Stackers after finding that the small internal magnets can come loose. If swallowed, these magnets can cause serious injuries, including intestinal tears, blockages, or infections.
If your child was hurt after playing with one of these toys, you may be able to file a claim. At Ethen Ostroff Law, we’re closely following the Tegu recalls and helping families take action when unsafe products lead to real harm.
Tegu recently pulled more than 22,000 of its Magnetic Floating Stackers off the shelves in the U.S., plus another batch in Canada and Mexico. The toys look harmless—wooden pieces that stack together with magnets—but the issue is inside. The magnets can come loose. And when kids swallow them (which can happen fast), it’s not just a choking hazard. The magnets can attract inside the body and cause real damage—like tears in the intestines, twisted bowels, infections, or worse.
This is part of a wider safety issue with magnetic toys, and it’s the reason behind the Magnetic Floating Stackers recalls. These toys don’t meet the current federal standards for magnet safety.
Tegu has gotten at least 31 reports of the magnets coming loose. No injuries so far, but the risk is high enough that the Tegu toy recalls are in full effect.
Here’s what we know:
