squishies
Slow-rising foam toys
Squishies are soft foam toys designed to be squeezed and slowly return to their original shape.
Usually molded to resemble food, animals, or other cute objects, they're marketed as stress relievers and collectibles, popular with children and teens: She has a whole collection of squishies on her desk.
The texture provides satisfying tactile feedback—hence the name.
