Hi guys!!! So, since squishies (specifically Needohs and Squishy Dumplings) are REALLY popular right now, I decided to make a post dedicated to, well…squishies!!! I recently got some new additions to my collection, so keep an eye out!!! Are you ready? Let’s go!
Needohs and Dumplings, Oh My!!!
So guys, you know squishies are super popular this summer (or at least this summer I realized it.) And I really can see why!!! In fact, if you’ve read my Needoh and Dumpling posts, you might already know that! But a few days ago I bought a new addition to my haul.

Anyways, if you guys wanna know how I finally found my Purple Needoh Nice Cube, you’ve scrolled to the right place.
So, me and my mom were at the mall looking for shoes (I found a really cute pair at Famous Footwear that was pink and purple) and while we were walking I spotted a mini kiosk-type store, and guess what the sign said? SQUISHY WORLD!!! Are you kidding me??? So of course I had to quickly grab a purple Needoh to come home with me 🥰 The store was filled with practically every kind of trending squishy!!! Butter squishies, Dumplings, peanut squishies (?) Fanta Needohs, cheese squishies, and of course, Nice Cubes!!! It was like squishy heaven. ✨
Anyways, I couldn’t even wait until we got home to open my Needoh, so of course, I opened it in the car. The packaging kinda looks like it’s from the 80’s, mostly because of the font and the bright colors. 😎
When I opened it, the texture was really weird!!! It goes back to square so slowly, it’s like magic! It feels totally different from any other fidget I own. ✨
So anyways, I recommend getting the Needoh Nice Cube (you can even get purple like me!!!) But, since they’re really popular right now, some people make fake Needohs, and you may think that they’re exactly the same as any old squishy, but they’re not. People who sell those things just dump whatever’s laying around into these things. 🤢🤮
Here are some tips on spotting fake squishies:
- If it’s a dumpling, check the face. Most dumpling faces look similar to this:

2. Check the packaging. Sometimes bootleg dumplings have misspelled words. Example: “Cozzect them all!!!” (That was literally what I saw once😭)
3. Most Needohs have the Needoh logo stamped on them somewhere. Knockoff ones will just look like regular cubes!!!
4. Squeeze it to check the texture. Is there a little light-up ball inside? Bootleg. Does the texture feel more like a Nice Cube? Bootleg. Is the shape all weird? Bootleg. 🥟
Anyways, I hope those tips helped you!!! But let’s move on to the next part: Squishy hunting!
Squishy hunting is very frustrating sometimes because you have to check multiple stores. I had to look in three stores to find my first Dumpling! But I have some handy tips on squishy hunting. 🛍
First of all, if you’re going to go squishy hunting and your parent won’t let you go, just come up with something else that you need, like clothing or shoes. They might be convinced and tell you you can check a few stores for squishies! It worked for me 😉
But let’s get to the actual hunting part. Since these things are really popular, they are super hard to find. IN ALL STORES, so you’ll have to prepare yourself for failure. Don’t get your hopes up, but hey, maybe you’ll get lucky and find something!!! After all, I did twice!
Sometimes squishies are hidden around in unusual stores. I found my squishy dumpling in a shoe store!!! So, if you’re looking for a squishy in one of the obvious stores and have no luck, ask the cashier if any other stores nearby are stocked. Or, check one of those touchscreen signs and search for “toy stores.” Maybe you’ll even find a squishy kiosk like I did!!! 😜 Who knows…
Anyways, this section is getting a littlllleeee long, so I’m gonna move on to the Toca Boca section now.
I Built a Five Below in Toca Boca!!!
Heyy guys!!! So, you know how Needohs and Dumplings are really trendy right now (see my Dumpling unboxing post)? Well, I decided to build a supercute Five Below in Toca Boca so my characters can go squishy hunting, too! (I’m currently looking for a Needoh cube. What are you guys looking to find?)🧊

My Needoh store is finally finished!!! I added some extra stuff because the above picture looked too empty, and I hate my builds being empty, although I don’t like them too cluttered, either! 😵💫

Do you like my Needoh sign? It literally took me thirty-five minutes to draw, LOL…
I used the Pixel Art machine, which I really like since the other art thingies aren’t free. 🙁 I’m not trying to sound bratty like “Toca, make everything freee!!!” I’m just gratetful.😊
I even made two employees for my store!!! You can’t see them in that picture, but their names are Paisley and Alex. My avatar is scoping out the Pusheen plushies 👀
But anyways, here are some helpful tips on how to build the perfect Five Below in Toca Boca world!🍭
Super Building Tips:
- Use the items from the Pusheen and Hello Kitty collabs, including the Sanrio plushie free gifts. Real Five Belows have a LOT of Hello Kitty stuff!!!🎀
- Make custom signs with the art machines for logos of Needoh, Dumplings, and Squishmallows (see my custom Needoh sign.)🌈
- Add a snack area at the checkout, because most actual Five Belows have tons of little snack bags and stuff.
- I recommend you use stuff from the Slomo Supermarket pack, because it has lots of realistic snacks.🥨
- Add balloons on a string, string lights, neon signs, and more to make your Five Below even more colorful!!!💖
Anyways, guys, I hope you enjoyed my build today!!! Remember, if you want to see more of my adorable kawaii builds, just check out my #KawaiiBuildsWithMe tag, but until then, byeeeeee!!!!!
