This recall covers TheKiddoSpace LED soccer hover balls, about 5.5 inches across, which consumers received as promotional giveaways. The surface temperature of the toys' batteries exceeds the allowable limit, which violates the standard for toys and poses a risk of burn injuries.

What to do

Consumers should stop using the recalled balls immediately, take them away from children and contact The KiddoSpace to receive a free replacement LED soccer hover ball, including shipping. Consumers will be asked to write "RECALLED" in permanent marker on the ball and send a photo of the marked ball to info@thekiddospace.com. Consumers should then dispose of the ball in accordance with their local waste disposal requirements.
