Move over stress ball. The latest desk accessory is softer, more colorful, and a lot more fun to look at. As adults look for little ways to break up screen time and bring some personality to their workspaces, squishies are finding a new home outside the toy box and right on the desk.
And the timing makes sense. According to Gallup, 50% of U.S. employees experience significant daily stress, making small ways to step away from the screen and reset during the workday more relevant than ever.

It helps me make these interactions a little less nerve racking:
They turn boring desks into personality-filled spaces. From giant pickles to gummy-inspired designs, squishies are an easy way to make a home office, cubicle or workspace feel less corporate and a little more personal
