Emergency room Made Jul 10, 2012, sent to the company Jul 24, 2012, published by CPSC Aug 21, 2012
The product, in the report: Grab-A Bubble- a bubble which does not pop and you can stack them. This product comes in a test tube form with a regular wand to blow the bubbles as well as in a regular bottle with a special wand which has to go in the child’s mouth to blow the bubble.
My child had an allergic reaction while at a relatives beach house and we are not sure to what but she was playing with bubbles produced by JaRu toys out of Jacksonville, FL. The package for the Grab-A Bubble contains no ingredients and the bottles do not have ingredients listed either. When I called the company I was informed that they did not have a complete list of the ingredients and needed to get back to me.
I am aware from looking at this packaging that it is meant for children over 4 years of age but it also states that young children should have adult supervision which she had. I am more concerned with the fact that no one seems to know what is in these bubbles which are very strange and leave a film on the skin which needs to pulled off similar to dried liquid [REDACTED] glue.
My child required an ambulance ride to a local emergency room and several different medications to get the swelling of her right eye and lips/mouth to stop. We are now dealing with an allergist to try and determine what exactly caused this reaction but can not find out what the make-up of these bubbles are. My child is now ok but it took about 24 hours for all of the swelling to go down and she was put on steroids for 3 days after and I now have to carry an [REDACTED] as well as [REDACTED] in case it happens again.
I am amazed that a toy for children which shows a picture to not drink it does not include any ingredients and that the company does not even know what it contains. For a product that you should not drink the wand to blow the bubbles has to go into your mouth directly.
