TheKiddoSpace Recalls LED Soccer Hover Balls Due to Burn Hazard

What Happened

SN Commerce LLC, doing business as TheKiddoSpaceStore, has issued a recall for approximately 650 LED soccer hover balls. The recall was initiated because the surface temperature of the toy’s batteries can exceed allowable limits, violating mandatory safety standards for toys and posing a burn hazard to users. The company has received three reports of a burning smell during use, though no injuries have been reported to date.

Which Products Are Affected

The recall involves TheKiddoSpace-branded LED soccer hover balls. These are black and white plastic soccer balls featuring foam bumpers and measuring approximately 5.5 inches in diameter. The product packaging is labeled with “HOVER LED SOCCER BALL,” “GLIDE INTO FUN!”, and TheKiddoSpace logo. These items were distributed as promotional giveaways from December 2024 through February 2025.

What You Should Do

Consumers are advised to immediately stop using the recalled hover balls and keep them away from children. To receive a free replacement ball (including shipping), owners should contact TheKiddoSpace at [email protected]. Consumers will be required to write “RECALLED” in permanent marker on the ball and submit a photo of the marked product to the company. After providing proof, the ball should be disposed of according to local waste disposal requirements.

Why This Matters

This recall is significant because the product violates mandatory toy safety standards regarding battery heat, which could lead to burn injuries for children during play.
