When purchasing, you should choose the appropriate product according to the applicable age group marked on the product. You should also ask for an invoice or other proof of purchase from the operator when purchasing. 2. Look at the size. If the size of magnets or magnetic parts is too small, young children may easily be swallowed and cause suffocation injuries when playing with such magnetic toys. Therefore, magnetic toys that are larger in size and not easy to import should be selected. 3. Ask more. Before purchasing, you should ask the customer service of the e-commerce platform or the sales staff of the physical store to understand the functions of magnetic toys and the possible risks, and effectively avoid the purchase of unsuitable or risky products. When buying on an e-commerce platform, you can also get an in-depth understanding of product features, quality, and safety by viewing buyer reviews.

When children aged 8 and above play with such toys, parents should carefully read the relevant warning instructions, and take care of them and make necessary reminders to prevent accidents. If a child accidentally swallows or inhales magnetic parts, or if a child has sudden abdominal pain, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea and other suspected symptoms, they should be sent to a doctor immediately.
