Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

Toysmith is recalling about 58,000 Light-Up Magic Wands because the battery cover can detach and expose the button-cell batteries. The fuchsia-colored wands are topped with a star that flashes and makes noise. One child was reported to have swallowed a battery removed from the toy, which required medical attention for removal. These toys were sold at Carter's stores and various grocery and hobby retailers nationwide from June 2018 through October 2019.

Risk

The battery cover can easily come off, giving young children access to small button-cell batteries. These batteries pose a significant choking risk and can cause serious internal chemical burns if swallowed.

What You Should Do

  1. Check your child's toy for a fuchsia-colored wand with a star on top that flashes and makes noise.
  2. Verify if the wand is affected by looking for a white date code printed on the bottom portion of the handle. Recalled units have date codes between March 2018 (3/18/373) and June 2019 (6/19/373).
  3. Check the hangtag for UPC code 085761220034.
  4. Immediately stop using the recalled magic wand and place it out of the reach of children.
  5. Return the recalled wand to the store where it was purchased for a full refund.
