Younger kids may mistake these colorful magnets for candy and swallow them.
Children may also be attracted to magnets that look like food.
Hazard present if more than one magnet is swallowed within a short period of time.

Magnets can attract each other as they pass through the body and can perforate or block the intestines and lead to infection, blood poisoning and even death.
When a magnet is swallowed, emergency surgery is usually required.
