JA-RU Squishy Dough Ball Space Themed (1 Stress Balls) Rainbow Jumbo Squishies. Sensory Toys for Kids with Autism. Stress Relief Therapy Fidget Squeeze Balls. 5558-1A

I love these. I use them for different reasons. One is to squeeze when I am in heavy traffic. I also have anxiety. It helps take pressure off of me. I also use on my back while I am driving as a little acupressure.

The media could not be loaded. I’m an adult user and have had this ball for about a month now. Initially it was very hard; almost like it contained wet sand. Squeezing it just a little would compact it and you would have to smack or roll it (as instructions stated) to get it into a ball shape again.I knead it more than I squeeze it, usually for 30-60 minutes a night before bed. After about a month of this something with the ball has changed. Less moisture, maybe the actual ball material is stretching, my partner asked if I was grinding the sand down to a finer grain! Whatever it is, the sand feels looser, moves more freely, and can be squeezed more without compacting. I no longer have to smack it at all to loosen the sand. This is good for me because it’s what I originally wanted.Zero leaks and no sign of holes with what I would consider regular, gentle use over the course of a month. I have the purple and pink ball but the purple stripes have begun to wear away. Also, the changed nature of the ball means it no longer holds a ball shape. Neither of these things is a big deal to me. I will definitely be buying another one to have a dedicated place in my office.Edit: After almost a year, this item (and the second I bought) are still in one piece. I included a video so you can see the softer "squish" after extended use (it will not arrive this soft!) as well as the way the paint fades. Also worth noting, the exterior of the ball is a little sticky and tends to pick up fuzz and the like. I rinsed mine off before taking the video. Still happy with my purchase!

I was really excited about this and I allowed my 4-year-old and 8-year-old to play with it before I brought it into work. Let's say from the time I opened the package the stretchy ball lasted 2 hours before popping. Causing white sand to explode all over. The kids had a lot of fun while it lasted for those two hours but after that. Maybe not so much fun cleaning up afterward. Durability issues I think to say the least.

These are great but one broke pretty easily

This works great as a fidget tool for my anxiety. The texture and sound of the sand within the rubber ball are soothing.

My initial reaction to this was "why is my Stress Ball flat and lumpy?" My second reaction was "OMG this feels so weird, I hate it!" But than I just couldn't put it down, and honestly this is hands down the BEST stress/fidget item I have ever found. I think some people might have a hard time with the texture of it, but I absolutely love it. I'm getting these for everyone I know who needs or wants a stress ball!

Bought this for my daughter that has anxiety. When she gets worked up she likes to pull on it and squish it. It has a lot of stretch and it feels like it has sand in it so it is relaxing to squish it.

I gave one stretchy ball to my 11 year old son, who tends to take care of his things, and one to my daughter, 7, who tends to be rougher on things. My son still has his ball, but the coloring rubbed off early on especially when he tried to wash it. My daughter's ended up in the trash a week or so after she had it. Apparently, a classmate had stabbed it with a pencil, punctured a hole in it, which caused sand to leak everywhere and made a mess. My kids liked the concept of the stretchy balls, but I would not purchase this product again because the coloring rubbed off and can be easily punctured.
