Recall Insight
This recall's affected scope, documented in the Recall Profile below, stays within a single-region or limited-distribution footprint.

Product description
This recall involves Kori Gey-branded water elf toy kits. The recalled kits are a children's craft toy that uses colored gel dropped into water to form soft, squishy jelly-like figures. The toy kit consists of 22 bottles of water gel (12 non-sparkly and 10 sparkly), 22 molds in various shapes, a plastic strainer, a plastic jar labeled magic powder, extra magic powder packet, a paint brush, disposable gloves and a LED light with a button cell battery. The toy sets come in a plastic jar with lid. "Kori Gey" and "Water Elf Kit" are printed on the front of the toy kits.
Reason for recall
The recalled toy kits violate the mandatory standard for toys containing button cell batteries because the compartment that holds the batteries can be easily accessed and opened by children, posing a deadly ingestion hazard to children. When button cell and coin batteries are swallowed, the ingested batteries can cause serious injuries, internal chemical burns and death.
Remedy, what to do
Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled toy's light up luminous gasket (a LED light containing a button cell battery), take it away from children, and remove and properly dispose of the battery. Contact Qaniy for a full refund. Consumers should throw the toy's gasket away and send a photo of the product in the trash to changshaaoyuan@outlook.com. Note: Button cell batteries are hazardous. Batteries should be disposed of or recycled by following local hazardous waste procedures.
