Pop It! The 2021 Trend called “The Toy of the Pandemic”
If you have school-aged kids or nephews, chances are you’re well and truly across the latest “Pop It” trend. However, for those who aren’t aware of it, Pop It is a sensory bubble-popping toy that is simple to use and designed to provide a satisfying sensory and release nervous energy. All you need to do is press the bubbles down, and they make a pleasant popping sound to pop your stress away! Today I’m excited to share this latest toy craze hitting the market!
Why are Pop It toys so popular?
Before we head into the reason for their popularity, we will look into what “Pop It” is! As I briefly mentioned earlier, Pop It is a fidget toy where users repeatedly pop “bubbles” in and out. It's an endless cycle because, after you've popped out all of one side, you just flip it over and start popping again! So, why is Pop It so popular in Korea and worldwide? They have become especially popular on TikTok with their adorable appearances and satisfying sounds. Also, the environment that we have to be stuck in at home influenced this trend as well. Due to their simplicity, people could unwind whenever they “pop” them forgetting their worries and problems.
What are the benefits of playing Pop It?
Pop It is not only entertaining to play but also advantageous in our mental health by just popping them. Fidget toys like Pop It can activate one or more of our senses, for example, our sight, hearing, or our sense of touch, and this helps to calm and relax people from stress. Actually, as far back as the 1970s, plenty of sensory toys have been used by health care experts as a way of treating children who have anxiety or sensory difficulties. Pop It can also help us with concentration and attention, just like how people play with a pen when they're trying to focus on something. These features make Pop It even more attractive!
Diverse ways of using Pop It
You can see various kinds of Pop It that come in a variety of sizes, colors, and shapes adding utility to their appealing looks. If you need a healthy way to escape from the stress of everyday life, you can also make your own DIY Pop It that represents you perfectly! Other great characteristics of these toys are easy to travel anywhere in the car, airplane, restaurant, school, or office so there are many enjoyable games that can be adapted even in an educational setting for learning alphabet or math.
Pop It is an amazing toy that can help users to organize their thoughts and thus make them calm and relax. So if you want to get in the newest trend, you should consider having Popits sooner than later!
