The product, in the report: The product involved was the Star-Shaped Light-Up Dry Erase Board (sold at Claires, style number 26788). It is a hard plastic star-shaped accessory that lights up the edges and any writing upon activation. The board measures approximately 6 inches wide by 8 inches high (15.24 cm 20.32 cm) and is battery-operated. The product includes a dry-erase marker and is marketed as a room decoration for children.
On 08/24/2025, my 9-year-old child was severely injured by a toy placed on their nightstand next to the bed. During the night, my child accidentally rolled or fell off the bed and struck this product. The impact caused a deep laceration on her left leg approximately 4 inches long, cut to the bone which required an ambulance ride, emergency medical care, and 22 stitches to close.
The product involved was the Star-Shaped Light-Up Dry Erase Board (sold at Claires, style number 26788).

There were no visible warnings on the packaging about the risk of impact injuries or placement hazards. Given its design and marketing, its entirely foreseeable that a child could fall onto or against this rigid, illuminated toy next to their bedyet it lacks any protective design features or cushioning. This design presents a clear and unreasonable hazard.
This injury was traumatic and preventable. I believe the Star-Shaped Light-Up Dry Erase Board poses an unreasonable risk of serious injury to children and warrants investigation for unsafe design and insufficient warnings.
