The product, in the report: Multi colored Large Water Beads
Water beads. I bought larger water beads that go up to about the size of a golf ball as a fun sensory toy for my two oldest kids (5&7 at the time) and they were playing with it before my baby at the time was even born in 2020. Fast foward to 2021 and when the baby was 10 months old so almost a year later after playing with them he had swallowed one of the shrunken beads and after a week had to have emergency surgery to remove from his Intestines after being treated for the Flu. The beads were strictly in the bathtub and a Bucket and were played with for a day before we took them outside and threw them away in the dumpster when they were all done with them at the end of the day.

Hospital admission Made Feb 3, 2022, sent to the company Feb 7, 2022, published by CPSC Mar 1, 2022
The product, in the report: Jangostor large water gel beads - multi colored water beads that expand up to about two inches in diameter after being soaked in water.
I bought Jangostor jumbo water beads from Amazon a year ago for my two year old. I found them after searching for sensory toys for toddlers on Amazon. At some point my son must’ve swallowed one. We had no idea. One day he seemed lethargic and started vomiting. It took the ER two days to figure out what was wrong. They eventually did an ultrasound and found out that he was 100% obstructed. He ended up in the hospital for nearly a month and underwent 3 separate surgeries to remove the water bead and repair damage from the extensive surgery. These water beads are marketed as fun for all ages. This could not be FURTHER from the truth. These should not be marketed to children.

Hospital admission Made Jul 26, 2021, sent to the company Aug 17, 2021, published by CPSC Aug 31, 2021
The product, in the report: Jangostor / [REDACTED] /[REDACTED] Water beads that grow in size when place in water (or in this case inside a human body). Comes in bright attractive colors. We purchased ours specifically from amazon - they are the jumbo sized ones the grow up to 2” round. Other [REDACTED] and water beads cases that ended in surgery used the small size beads. B071SKSTRM Brand: Jangostor
[REDACTED] and other water beads are advertised as “preschool toys” perfect for sensory toys (which appeals to children with special sensory needs). On amazon, there are water beads that explicitly state “addictive sensory experience for kids of all ages.”.
My one year old swallowed ONLY one. I’m now sitting in a hospital chair holding her tired body after a exploratory surgery to find what was blocking her digestive track. She had been throwing up non-stop for 2 days, was totally lethargic, and couldn’t eat. Because of the type of material water beads are made of - they don’t show up on a X-ray or ultrasound. She was cut open then her stomach was cut open. She will have a large scar down the length of her navel for her life. A quick [REDACTED] search will show this has happened to other’s kids and pets...they all needed surgery. The water beads swell to cover and block passages completely. It happens with small and large water beads. They should NOT be marketed for young children at all - and the tiny “don’t eat” warning along with a “non-toxic” advertising on it persuades the consumer that there really couldn’t be that big of an emergency if swallowed. This is highly dangerous and offers zero warning on what to do if swallowed. Consumers are being duped into thinking this “non-toxic” product is as safe as [REDACTED]...when in fact it is a death wish to any child who sees the “addictive” (their words not mine) squishy balls and wants to eat one.
