Affected products
This recall involves Colombia-themed magnetic board games. The recalled games consist of a two-sided board with a storage bag and 32 multi-colored magnetic pieces and two dice with one storage pouch. The original packaging included a piece of chocolate. "Colombia que linda eres" is printed on the game's board. "Cositas Colombianas" is printed on the front of storage box. Only the four- and six-player versions of the board games are included in this recall. Sold at: Centro Envíos Aventura in Miami, Florida and online at Amazon.com from April 2023 through June 2025 for between $20 and $50. Made in Colombia.
The risk
The recalled board games violate the mandatory standard for toys because the magnetic game pieces contain loose high-powered magnets, posing an ingestion hazard to children. When high-powered magnets are swallowed, the ingested magnets can attract each other, or other metal objects, and become lodged in the digestive system. This can result in perforations, twisting, and/or blockage of the intestines, blood poisoning and death. None reported

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled magnetic board games and take them away from children.
