Is the back still all magnet and not small pieces? I'm just afraid of the magnet coming off and being a choking hazard.

The magnet is as big as the piece itself. Made from the board it was cut from. I don't believe you can even peel it off.

The back is all magnet, not small pieces. Although, I would be worried about the wooden part breaking off and becoming a choking hazard. The first time my daughter played with them, 2 pieces broke, and definitely would be a choking hazard.

Yes, it's still all magnet on the back, however some of the letters are small enough to be choking hazards on their own. Hope this helps.

Maybe its because of the little plastic animals that come with it. Although small, I never worried about my grandson choking on them, and he of course never did. Its a sweet little riding toy, any toddler will love. If you were worried about them, I guess you could just put them away.

As long as a wheel didn't pop off or something I would consider the whole set not a choking hazard.

Yes it is still a problem. I have had mine only 1 month & the magnet on the tablespoon fell out. They need to use a different glue. I would not buy again. Company could easily fix this problem.

Yes the magnet is very strong, your not going to have any issues with it falling off.

I highly doubt the magnet is strong enough to affect it. It shouldn't be a worry :)

with the lanyard and the magnet on the back it isn't easy to drop--I used to drop all my others all the time and they'd fall apart and I'd have to buy a new one. I think the design and size of this one helps prevent being dropped/falling. I can put it into my pocket or around my neck and walk away which also helps because I'm not having to set it down wherever I go in the house so no balancing it someplace where it will fall. I will say it is made of a sturdy hard plastic, much nicer than ANY I've ever purchased. Much better made than anything I've ever purchased and I've purchased some that were rather expensive from specialty stores, not just local discount stores. with the lanyard and the magnet on the back it isn't easy to drop--I used to drop all my others all the time and they'd fall apart and I'd have to buy a new one.

We've had this set for 2 years now, my 6 year old and my 2 year old play with it, and we only had 1 piece that fell from a very high place and opened, exposing the magnets. All the other pieces are still intact.

Hello, In checking the product I cannot find that the item has a warning for "lead". The item does have a "Choking Hazard" Small parts. Not for children under 3 years. The item is made of hard plastic and metal parts. Thank you, Customer Service, Office Playground.

I bought it for my 3 year old grandchild. I don't know what they would consider a "small choking part." The only thing that could even come off of either broom would be the bristles. And I don't know that I would consider that a choking hazard. It has been fine for us!

This iS a good question. But I got this for my 15 month old, and she really likes it. There is not any small parts that come off or anything, so unsure why. Maybe because it is wood, and if they chew on it paint might flake off? This is my best guess.

Yes the entire back is magnetic. Which is great because you don't have to worry about any pieces falling off.

I think that the standard for the warning is if the toy has small pieces or if small pieces could be generated upon breakage. In this case, there are no chokeable parts, but if the ring were to break, I could see how there would be chokeable parts generated. It would take more than usual baby play to break this ring, though. As an adult, I'd have to make a concerted effort to break it, and my first step would be to open the ring, which even my toddler can't do. I don't think it's reasonably a choking hazard when played with by babies/toddlers. That said, my children haven't found it to be a fun toy or a particularly good teether. If you haven't bought it yet, skip it.

There's not much of a choking hazard. The clothes all come off to be changed with the available accessories, but they would all be too large to choke on. She does come with a pacifier but I think that would also be too large for a 1 year old to choke on and could always just be put away until the child is a little older if the parents are concerned.

The smallest pieces in our sets are equilateral triangles with the sides 2 and 3/4 inches long. So the pieces themselves would not be a choking hazard. However, one caveat. Our grandson built a structure on a table in a sunroom where the floor was ceramic tile. His building was knocked off the table onto the tile floor, and one of the pieces "popped" open. The building tile itself was not broken but the two sides came apart and the six little magnets inside were scattered. Those narrow little magnets, 3/4 inch long, would definitely be a bad choking hazard for a baby or small child. The building tile was not broken. We were able to re-insert the magnets and press the two sides of the tile back together, but I threw that tile away in case it had been weakened. I alerted all our eight grandchildren's parents. It has never happened again. Kids' buildings have been knocked down constantly but always on wooden floors and there has been no further problem. Overall, it has been a fabulous toy. Our local grandson, now 8, still dashes to play with it every time he comes to our house. With a small child, however, I would want an adult to be watching them, just in case....

Mine still has magnet in it, but I've never had any of the problems others have reported.

I have no fears about this product since there are no parts that could come off as choking hazards. My daughter loves these--I bought them for her 1st birthday. She pretends to eat and drink from them and loves putting them in an out of the grocery bag. She of course chews on them but they are well made and are not falling apart. If you are worried about the velcro coming off then maybe you could remove it yourself, but I think this is a well made safe product
