At the same time, the users of the toy video on Youtube have seen a sharp increase in the number of hits, and the popularity is similar to the slime on Instagram. Watching others manipulate a plastic object always has satisfaction, especially the object has a lovely look.
Our toy tester spent some time studying these cute little toys and trying to uncover the secret behind the explosion. They found three characteristics from these explosive models:
1, squeeze can help relax
Like pressure balls, our toy testers find that squeezing can be very satisfying. Or, squeezing induces the spontaneous sensory meridian response (ASMR), which can also be called chills or a slight tingling sensation. The touch of these squishy is usually very soft, comfortable and feels good. High quality squishy can be used for a long time.
2, the smell is good
In addition to its great touch, Squishy exudes a magical flavour: the little strawberry-like flavour is like fruit, and the smiling pie slices smell like coffee, and they all exude a sweet and savory scent.
3, these toys are also suitable for adults to play
The toy tester's favorite is a purple coffee cup. She said that when she feels stressed, she can squeeze the toy and get a brief release. Therefore, these toys will be a good gift for your stressful friend.
