If you are not on TikTok, you might not know about the latest toy fad propelled by the youths of the nation. These are called Squishmallows, and for our Gen X and Millennial readers, these are pretty much just like Beanie Babies, only fatter.
What makes Squishmallows different than the similarly shaped plushes? Disney’s popular Tsum Tsum line, for example, also consists of rotund, pill-shaped animals, and they are certainly soft. However, Tsum Tsums only depict Disney characters, while Squishmallows create a whole new universe of stuffed animal creatures, of which there are more than 800.
Squishmallow characters are not particularly original—some examples include Ashley the Apple, Orin the Orange, Scarlet the Strawberry, and Wanda the Watermelon. But their simplicity and cuddliness seem to have resonated with young people in a time when hugging is severely restricted.
Sadly, as with most fads, Squishmallows can be hard to get your hands on. As of this writing, their website is down, making Amazon your best bet for a purchase. Even there, most of them are out of stock, with certain items available for delivery by mid-April.
One thing to note, if you do decide to being your perusal on Amazon: Squishmallows are not the same as “Squishville by Squishmallows.” The latter line is by the same brand, but its stuffed figures are a mere two inches high, which is a major blow to their cuddliness factor. Caveat emptor.

In 2022, Santa hats are out. Silly turkey hats are in.
I was on Amazon looking for things to do over Thanksgiving with relatives (eventually landing on the brand new game Christmas Categories) when I came across this:
My first thought was that it creates the perfect opportunity for someone in the family to recreate the classic Monica turkey head scene from Friends:
Then I realized that there are many ways you can have fun with the turkey hat Thanksgiving. When you play games, you can decide in advance that the loser has to wear the turkey hat. Or perhaps you can start a tradition that whoever carves the turkey each year gets to wear the turkey hat. The possibilities are endless!
No matter how you are spending the holiday this year (with funny turkey hat, or sans funny turkey hat), the We Know Products team wishes you a very happy Thanksgiving!
If you go on Amazon and search for “handheld massager,” you will find dozens and dozens of clones of the same $100 massage gun. My immediate reaction upon seeing this was that there is no longer any innovation in the massager industry. Instead of actually investing in R&D to come up with more advanced ways to help customers, massager companies seem content to copy one another and compete on price.
One company gives me hope. That company is NAIPO, a well-known massager brand whose stated mission is to help people all over the world “Find Well-being.” NAIPO’s latest handheld massager features a brand new design that provides added value for the user. While it is still a percussion massager, its sleek comfort-grip handle grants access to otherwise inaccessible areas of the body. It also features 5 interchangeable massager heads so that you are able to treat each acupuncture point with the best possible massage.
This attention to detail creates a truly customizable experience. After a workout or just a long day at work, you can choose from 5 different speed levels and 5 different working modes, from gentle relaxation to vigorous, deep-tissue massage. By virtue of the extended front grip, you can give exactly the right type of massage to previously neglected muscles all over your body.
A common complaint about percussion massagers is the noise level that can make it awkward or even impossible to use in public. The new NAIPO handheld massager is different. Unlike its competitors, it provides amazing results with only a single massage head. This has the twin effect of reducing noise levels and making it lighter and therefore less unwieldy, a huge plus especially for older users.
The NAIPO XF-5120 handheld massager will be available for purchase soon, and at $52.99 it is inarguably cheaper than similar products on the market. You get your very own either at NAIPO’s own storefront on naipocare.com or on Walmart.com. Stay tuned for more updates!
