Dimensions of the world's largest squish, types and descriptions of anti-stress massagers
According to scientists, small movements of the fingers have a beneficial effect on the psyche: therefore, knitting, as a profession, is known to calm the nerves, relieve stress. Squish is a piece of rubbery material, indispensable for engineers and doctors, businessmen and housewives. Kids, however, will love the animal figurines that can be crumpled and squeezed. And today, let's talk about the biggest and brightest squish in the toy world.
What are usually the sizes of squishies
The operating principle of the toy is based on elementary gestures: taking it in hand, thinking. The benefits of this simplified approach are obvious, as kids and parents alike are eager to buy squishies. They are the following:
- The toy does not break.
- Returns to its original form.
- The finished product takes on any appearance - a fruit, an animal, an object.
The standard size of the squish is chosen so that it fits in the palm of your hand. This is generally between 8 and 10 centimeters. What image to give to a rubbery substance is also not a question. A carton of milk, a thermos, a funny animal, a croissant, an apple or a pear. And that's not the whole list.
The main advantage of any squish is the ability to quickly recover its shape: it is worth squeezing it a little and then letting go, because the stress relief toy gradually returns to its original shape.
The secret lies in the use of a superplastic polymer for the manufacture of polyurethane. Flavored squishies are popular, so it turns out two in one: part hand warmer and great smelling fun.
Traditionally children's sets are smaller, adults are larger. But there are also giants among them. Jumbo squishies are said to be softer and smell stronger than their more compact counterparts.
What is the biggest toy
Big squish is a relative concept. The huge ones, at 30 or 40 centimeters, do not. Most online stores offer under cover "big" squishies up to 20 centimeters in size. Most often there are 12, 15, 18, 19 centimeters.
You can order a giant strawberry with natural berry flavor or a volleyball. These are examples of large squishies, their sizes are 20 or 25 centimeters. Remember that you will have to pay for such copies, they are more expensive than children's squishiks in the form of pandas or cups with ice cream.
It is not recommended to give squishies to babies, bearing in mind their habit of trying everything to the teeth. Rough handling can cause a child to bite, chew and even swallow a piece of foam.
The main problem with rubber toys is their limited lifespan. Alas, they quickly become unusable. Squishies with a combination composition (rubber shell and gel filler) are believed to last longer.
More examples of huge squishies
Chinese manufacturers, with a very serious demand, can organize the production of squish of any size. The ceiling of 25 centimeters has been reached so far. These are strawberries that look natural with all the details. There are characteristic leaves and dots of the seeds. And also the smell, indistinguishable from the aroma of fresh berries. You can crease it as much as you want, it returns to its original shape.
Volleyball, seemingly indistinguishable from the real thing, but softer than sports, strawberry shades from pink to blue, half lemon and watermelon - this is not a complete list of big toys.
For the restless, there is an option to make a toy yourself, of any size. YouTube already has training videos for making a huge slice of watermelon (65 centimeters) and an iPhone. But first you need a special memory foam. You will also need paints, glue and a minimum of drawing skills. But no one will have such an original squish. Such a toy can be crumpled together, three, even used as a pillow.
Rules for handling toys
Squishies are not intended for small children. The optimal age is 5-6 years. But even at the same time, it is important to remember that biting the rubbery mass, regardless of its strawberry, banana or watermelon smell, is strongly discouraged. Squishies are inedible!
Before buying, it is advisable to clarify the presence of a certificate, find out what material the toy is made of and its safety for humans, including the absence of toxic dyes. After using the stress trainer, be sure to wash your hands with warm water and soap.
At the first damage, when the shell is torn, the toy becomes unusable. 2-layer squishies, filled with gel inside, are considered more durable and reliable. But they don't last forever either.
The toy should also not be given to animals, and then after them use it yourself. The main purpose of the squish is to warm up the arms and relieve stress, so it's the best thing to do first.
