Sqwishland Toys For a Birthday Bucket List

What gift ideas would be great for young kids? SqwishLand toys, of course! Take it from Mom Blogger, Whitney from www.mommieswithstyle.com:

Sqwishland Sqwiknies (not to be confused with Squinkies. Oh, I know.) These are at least cheaper than their counterparts. These little rubber animals come in small balls. The Sqwinkie itself has a small hole on it’s stomach so you can decorate with the Sqwinkie – Cole added a “bracelet” to his bucket where you can change and swap out Sqwinkies and wear them. A tube of 6 Sqwishland animals is $4.99. (Great stocking stuffer!)

SqwishLand Bags 2 New Awards from The National Parenting Center

SqwishLand's 2 hottest toys, DIY SqwishLand and the Soft 'N Squishy SqwishLand Bracelet received another pair of awards to put up on the SqwishLand awards shelf. This time it's the Seal of Approval from The National Parenting Center (TNPC). Here's what TNPC had to say about the SqwishLand toys:


DIY SqwishLand

Chances are somewhere in your town there is a ceramics painting center where you can go and paint ceramic or clay pieces. They are popular for groups, families, parties and the like. The problem with these places, according to our testers, is that they are cost prohibitive. SqwishLand is bringing the party home and at a much more affordable price. Just take out the parrot and let your child have at it. Depending on the level of intricacy and detail, it can take anywhere from 30 minutes to two hours to complete but for just under $10, the price can't be beat. Finally, kids can take digital pictures of their painted masterpiece and upload it to the SqwishLand site, then other kids vote on it to determine each month’s design winner. Ultimately a grand prize winner will have their design made into an actual SqwishLand toy.

Soft 'N Squishy SqwishLand Bracelet

It’s official, bracelets are the new hot toy/accessory and SqwishLand is right on the leading edge of the craze. Start with a soft bracelet and attach your SqwishLand toys to it, then keep adding or trading or rearranging them so that it’s never the same bracelet twice. There is an additional component here which is the associated online world that each SqwishLander can be a part of. This extra level of fun and interactivity really had parents sold on the value. The social experience of kids sharing, trading and communicating about their creations was a marvel for http://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifparents to witness.
