Since Easter Sunday seems to creep up on us every year when we’re not paying attention, here’s a reminder for anyone who needs it: Easter is on March 31, 2024 this year! Now you know how much time you have to make your Squishmallow plans.
Having this information at the forefront of our thoughts is only half the battle, however. Those of us with offspring know that fulfilling our duties as Easter Bunny “helpers” is the most important part of the holiday, and baskets are no longer just about chocolate eggs and candy. Nope, today’s kids (and teens!) expect more in their Easter baskets … and they definitely want an adorable Easter-themed Squishmallow!
Squishmallows were invented in 2017 by Jonathan Kelly under Kelly Toys Holdings LLC. Kelly got the idea for the round plush toys while visiting Japan, and they really started to catch on during the pandemic thanks to TikTok (of course). These days, the Squishmallow brand has expanded to include over 1,000 characters with unique names and stories. They’re also available in multiple sizes, ranging from a clip-on 3.5-inch keychain Squishmallow to the largest one yet, a 24-inch beauty just made for snuggling.
Squishmallows have also become a bit easier to find than they once were, but you still have to think ahead when ordering for a special occasion or holiday. So moms and dads who celebrate Easter, now’s your moment to pick out the cutest Easter Squishmallow on the market. We’ve made it easier by selecting our favorites!
