SquishyStressBalls12PackforKids (Fruit)

I work at an elementary school and we are constantly running out of ice packs. These are the perfect size for a little hands to use and their colorful, cheerful design makes the children feel better. They think that the colors and shapes are really cute. The gel beads inside also means that, you can shape the ice pack to the body part that hurts. I brought the packs over to school the day they arrived, and just remove the top flap and put the whole box in the freezer to help corral them. It really made a difference in storage. Overall, I’m really happy with the quality of the year product, as well as the variety of designs, and the size, which fits tiny hands well. I’ll see how long they survive, but I think I may have to buy a set every year since kids always walk off with them. I’m really excited to see what other kind of shapes this company might make!

Really like these ice packs for the whole family. They are cute and aesthetically pleasing. But also they are really functional and fun for my kids when they get hurt they love to be able to pick their favorite design. They are super easy to clean and my only concern at first was how durable they were and if they would hold up because my youngest likes to bite things and shove everything in his mouth. But so far they’ve held up great and we haven’t lost one yet!

The fruits are cute but are filled with too much air so you miss the sensory feeling of the water beads. My autistic daughter did not really enjoy them. Great idea but needs a little improvement.

My children use these to help regulate and calm down.Very sturdy !Smaller in size so perfect for little handsHighly recommended

These are nice water bead sensory toys. They are made pretty well. For me, they do help relieve stress when squeezing them. I would think they would be calming for kids. They are small, so would be great for toddler sized hands. I can see where they could help teach fruits, colors, and shapes. They will make good Easter basket toys for the young ones.

The kids love these squishy sensory toys. They feel so cool and are a good quality. Holding up through kids swishing them constantly.

I love when toys serve a greater purpose. These squishy sensory toys also doubling as little ice packs for the inevitable boo-boos is genius! My kiddo has sensory challenges and loves labeling and sorting, so these have been a big hit. The durian is a jackfruit in our house because we haven’t had exposure to durian where we live, but potato/po-tah-toe. I’m keeping a close, watchful eye on these to make sure all of those little water beads stay put. The seaming is holding up so far despite gentle reminders not to stomp on the fruit. Some have more tension to the vinyl casing than others (looking at you, watermelon and durian/jackfruit) so we’ll see if they loosen up over time. All in all, we’re enjoying these and would gladly welcome veggies to the mix if they made a set!

So, these are pretty much as described - water beads sensory toys shaped like fruit. They are somewhat squishy, but I can imagine squeezing too hard could cause them to break (hence the warning on the box). The colors are bright, they seem well made and durable, and their colors and shapes are very engaging. I even liked the durian shaped one so much I claimed it as my own; I think it’s durian, anyway. In any event, if you need a sensory water bead toy, this may be just what you’re looking for.
