The 'Pop Its' Craze; A low value, high-profit opportunity
Discover how Bubble Popper pocket money toys can help boost profit and footfall for your store or eCommerce site.
Keen to get your hands on some Pop Its stock?? Well, you’re in luck!
Also known as Push Poppers or Bubble Poppers, these simple but addictive fidget toys have become a HUGE toy craze! They’re a viral TikTok trend amongst kids and adults alike, and social media influencers rave about them too.
The Pop It bubble fidget toy is designed to feel and sound just like popping bubble wrap - and it's every bit as satisfying! Push down the bubbles feel and hear the pop, then turn it over and do it again. They can be popped in patterns, and you can pop more than one at a time.
Pop Its are perfectly suited to driving impulse purchases in-store, however if you sell via an e-commerce website, there are many people proactively searching for them online.
With kids spending more time at home than ever in the last year or so, the industry has seen a surge in spending on smaller fidget toys. They help keep kids calm as parents valiantly do their day jobs whilst also trying to be a child-minder or teacher at the same time. Low-cost and trendy sensory toys that entertain and help keep kids in check are a win-win for everyone!
Fidget & Sensory Toy Benefits Are Backed By Research
All kids (and even adults!) will love to play with them just for fun, but they have added benefits backed by research.
Not only do fidget toys like Pop Its develop hand dexterity and coordination, but they relieve stress and even improve learning through the power of mindfulness. Focusing the mind on simple sensory inputs helps to keep kids across a wide range of age groups relaxed, focused and calm.
Sensory toys are particularly soothing for children with additional learning needs such as autism, ADD, or ADHD. Low-cost but high in value, bubble popper and other sensory toys can be a life saver for children, parents and teachers alike. Anxious or excitable energy can more easily find an outlet when kids can keep their hands busy, reducing emotional or energetic overwhelm.
