Kinder eggs are hollow milk chocolate eggs about the size of a large hen’s egg, and are usually packaged in a colorful foil wrapper. These eggs are a popular treat during the Easter holiday season. Kinder eggs are a prohibited item because they contain a toy surprise hidden inside that poses a choking and aspiration hazard for children younger than three years of age.
The toy within the egg is contained in an oval-shaped plastic capsule, and has small parts that may require assembly. Each egg contains a different toy. Many of the toys have been tested by the Consumer Product Safety Commission and have been determined to present a choking hazard for young children. Kinder eggs may not be imported into the U.S., and will be confiscated and destroyed, or the traveler may be allowed to return to Canada with their kinder eggs.
