Product Safety Warning Details
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is warning consumers to immediately stop using Lexibook Bio Toys Wooden Cat Magnetic Fishing Games because the game violates the magnet requirements of the mandatory federal standard for toys. The game contains one or more magnets that fit within CPSC’s small parts cylinder. In addition, the magnets are stronger than permitted and pose a risk of serious injury or death if ingested by children.
CPSC issued a Notice of Violation to the seller, Lexibook America, Inc., of New York, but the firm has not agreed to recall the magnetic fishing game or offer a remedy to consumers.
When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or to another metal object, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in serious injuries such as intestinal perforations, twisting and/or blockage, infection, blood poisoning and death.
The toys were sold online on Amazon from February 2024 through May 2025 for between $15 and $20. The products may have also been sold on other websites. The wooden cat-shaped frame has 10 different colored circular holes and comes with 10 colored wooden fish that fit in the hole with its matching color. The fish have metal tips on top. The game includes two wooden fishing rods with magnetic lures to attract the fish. The magnets embedded in the lures are high-powered and can easily be separated from the fishing rods. The Bio Toys Wooden Cat Magnetic Fishing Games have the “Bio Toys” and “Lexibook” logos printed on the front of the box.
This product was manufactured in China.
CPSC urges consumers to stop using the Lexibook Bio Toys Wooden Cat Magnetic Fishing Games immediately and dispose of them. Do not sell or give away these hazardous wooden magnetic fishing games.

Related Recalls
The 3-in-1 products pose a suffocation risk because they were marketed for infant sleep, and they have an incline angle greater than 10 degrees, in violation of the Infant Sleep Products Rule and Safe Sleep for Babies Act. In addition, the products fail to meet mandatory warning requirements under the high chair standard.
The recalled baby walkers violate the federal safety standard for infant walkers because they can fit through a standard doorway and fail to stop at the edge of a step as required, posing a risk of serious injury or death due to a fall hazard. In addition, the baby walkers’ brake pads contain levels of lead that exceed the federal lead content ban that are prohibited in children’s products by the Federal Hazardous Substances Act. Lead is toxic if ingested by young children and can cause adverse health effects.
The recalled helmets do not comply with the impact requirements of the Consumer Product Safety Commission’s (CPSC) mandatory federal safety standard for bicycle helmets. The helmets can fail to protect the user in the event of a crash, posing a risk of head injury.
The recalled dietary supplements contain iron, which must be in child-resistant packaging, as required by the Poison Prevention Packaging Act. The iron-containing dietary supplement packages violate the federal standard for child-resistant packaging because the bottles and blister packs are not child-resistant, posing a risk of deadly poisoning, if the contents are swallowed by young children.
The recalled portable baby loungers violate the federal safety standards for Infant Sleep Products because the sides are shorter than the minimum side height limit to secure the infant; the sleeping pad’s thickness exceeds the maximum limit, posing a suffocation hazard; and an infant could fall out of an enclosed opening at the foot of the lounger or become entrapped. The portable loungers do not have a stand, posing a fall hazard. These violations create an unsafe sleeping environment for infants, posing a risk of serious injury or death.
The highchairs pose a fall hazard and risk of serious injury or death to babies because the legs of the chair can detach from the frame if the screws connecting the legs are not properly tightened during assembly.
The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) is charged with protecting the public from unreasonable risk of injury associated with the use of thousands of types of consumer products. Deaths, injuries, and property damage from consumer product-related incidents cost the nation more than $1 trillion annually. Since the CPSC was established more than 50 years ago, it has worked to ensure the safety of consumer products, which has contributed to a decline in injuries associated with these products.
Federal law prohibits any person from selling products subject to a Commission ordered recall or a voluntary recall undertaken in consultation with the CPSC.
