Squishy Gift Ideas for Kids (and Stressed-Out Adults)

Squishies are the rare gift that works for almost everyone. Kids love them for the cute faces and the satisfying slow rise. Adults love them because squeezing a tiny dumpling during a stressful meeting is cheaper than therapy. Here are our favorite squishy gift ideas for kids, teens, and grown-ups who need a break.

Everything below is from our Squishies collection. Quick note before you shop: some items are labeled for older kids (14+) on the product page, so check each listing's age guidance before gifting to little ones.

Dumpling Squishies (Our Specialty)

Dumpling Squishies Toy ($19.26)

The Dumpling Squishies Toy is a classic for a reason. It is soft, squeezable, and impossible not to smile at. A great desk buddy for adults and a sweet surprise for any kid who loves snack-themed toys.

Halloween Ghost Dumpling Squishy with Steamer ($30.99 to $31.99)

Want something extra special for spooky season? The Halloween Ghost Dumpling Squishy with Steamer comes with its own little steamer, which makes it feel like a real gift instead of a random toy. It is made from silicone rubber and labeled 14+, so it is ideal for teens and adults.
