Squishies have been in the news for leaky fillings and nasty chemicals in cheap copies. Here's what we do differently.
No gooey middles
Solid foam or solid silicone only. No gel, liquid, slime or water beads, so nothing can burst out.
Lab-tested
Each squishy goes on sale only after we have an independent lab test report to toy safety standards (AS/NZS ISO 8124 or EN 71). Reports will be linked here as they arrive.
No knock-offs
We don't sell copies of branded toys or characters. Fake squishies are where most of the chemical problems are found.
Ages 3 and up
Some squishies are small enough to be a choking risk for babies and toddlers. Keep them away from under-3s.
What "safe" means in Australia
There's no government stamp that approves toys before they're sold in Australia. Sellers must follow the mandatory safety standards and the Australian Consumer Law, and good sellers back that up with independent lab tests. That's why we show our test reports rather than a badge.
Squishy care rules
- Squishies are not food. Don't bite, chew or suck them, even if they smell sweet.
- Never microwave, heat or freeze a squishy.
- Don't cut them open or paint them with nail polish.
- Wash silicone squishies in warm soapy water and let them dry. Wipe foam squishies with a damp cloth.
- If a squishy splits or tears, throw it away.
