Bear-Shaped Fridge Magnets

Bear-shaped fridge magnets are decorative magnets designed to attach notes or artwork to refrigerators and other metal surfaces. They are typically found in kitchens, playrooms, or classrooms where children may have easy access.

What’s the risk?

Small, powerful magnets can be easily swallowed by children. If more than one magnet is swallowed, they can attract each other inside the intestines, causing blockages or tears. This can lead to serious and potentially life-threatening injuries, especially for young children.

What should parents do?

Stop using the fridge magnets immediately. Keep them out of reach of children. Return the product to the place of purchase or follow Health Canada’s recall instructions for safe disposal.
