Are your littles obsessed with squishy toys?!
As much as I’m over the squishy craze, I’m also a little obsessed. 🙃 While littles have started a collection, we can also teach regulation skills with sensory tools.
Benefits of Squishy Toys for Kids
* Stress relief: Helps kids release tension and feel calmer.
* Emotional regulation: Provides a simple tool to manage big feelings.
* Focus and attention: Offers tactile input that may help some children concentrate.
* Sensory support: Engages the sense of touch through squeezing, stretching, and manipulating.
* Self-regulation: Encourages children to use a calming strategy independently.
* Fine motor development: Strengthens hand muscles and supports finger coordination.
* Anxiety management: Gives nervous or overwhelmed children a comforting outlet.
* Mindful breaks: Encourages children to pause, breathe, and reset.
* Safe expression: Provides a physical outlet for restless energy when used appropriately.
Give your squishy collection a purpose for your children.
And if you’re looking to add a few options to your collection, boo basket, stocking, or regulation spot - we’ve got you!
