Magnetic Color Sorting Board
Check against the official notice below — it lists the full affected range.
Discount School Supply is recalling Excellerations™ magnetic color sorting boards designed to teach color and sorting to young children. The boards are made of plywood, measure 16 inches wide by 12 inches high, and feature a wand with a magnet attached by a plastic cord. The recalled boards contain about 60 small metal balls (each 1 centimeter in diameter) beneath a clear plastic cover. The magnet in the wand can detach, and the plywood backing can crack and release the metal balls, creating a choking and serious internal injury risk. Additionally, the surface paint on the metal balls contains lead levels that exceed federal standards.
Consumers should immediately stop children from using the recalled board, keep it out of children's reach and sight, and contact Discount School Supply for a full refund.

The magnet in the wand can detach and the plywood backing can crack and release small metal balls that are sandwiched between the board and a clear plastic cover. These pose choking and serious internal injury risks associated with ingestion of a magnet and metal ball. The surface paint on the metal balls contains levels of lead that exceed the federal lead paint standard.
Consumers should immediately stop children from using the recalled board, put it out of their reach and sight, and contact the company for a full refund.
This recall involves Excellerations™ magnetic color sorting boards with cupcake cut-outs that are used to teach color and sorting to young children. The recalled sorting board is made of plywood and is 16 inches wide and 12 inches high and has the Excellerations™ name and logo on the front in the bottom right corner. A clear plastic cover is attached to the board by rivets and a 4-inch long wand with a magnet in one end is attached to the top of the board by a 13.5-inch plastic cord. The face of the board has one jar-shaped cut-out and six cupcake-shaped cut-outs that are colored red, yellow, blue, green, orange and purple. Beneath the cover are about 60 multi-colored metal balls, each 1 centimeter in diameter. Children use the wand to move the balls around the board through channels from the jar to the cupcakes.
