PART 3.
Soft squishy design

■『Soft Squishy at Sowoni Playground』is not only a tactile play but also helps relieve stress.

Unlike the previous series of Sowoni Playground, the biggest feature of this squishy is that it is ‘soft.’
Because cotton is inserted between the patterns, you can play with paper in a much more three-dimensional way.
You can naturally relieve stress by playing with the soft squishy and pressing it.
It's similar to pop-it or slime, which were popular for a while, but it's better to make it yourself rather than buying a finished product and playing with it.

■You can play with 『Soft Squishy at Sowoni Playground』 by taking it off and putting it back on.

Conventional paper toys could not be played with for a long time because the paper would tear or get damaged easily if it got wet.
So, Sowoni Playground coated the design so that it wouldn't get damaged even if played with for a long time.
The key to Sowoni Playground, the tibutibu, is still effective in squishy.
If you look at the design, it is divided into a t-shirt design and a squishy design.
For the tibutibu design, just like in previous books, you can just stick double-sided tape on the gray box, but since the squishy design uses both sides, I didn't show a separate gray box.
Even though there is no gray box, you can enjoy various play with the completed squishy by attaching double-sided tape to it and removing it.


■『Soft Squishy at Sowoni Playground』is effective for developing fine motor skills and the brain.

Fine motor development is very important for children.
Fine motor skills are the foundation for other developments, and the brain can be developed through the process of seeing with the eyes and touching with the hands.
In that sense, paper play is great for developing fine motor skills by folding, assembling, and playing with designs.
Also, squishy requires a process of assembling a flat design into a three-dimensional shape. Since you have to constantly think about the finished product in your head during this process, you can also develop spatial perception skills.

■『Soft Squishy from Sowoni Playground』is easy to make, so children can feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction.

Making squishy is simpler than you think.
Just coat the pattern, cut it out with scissors, stuff it with cotton, tape it, and assemble it according to the tutorial—you're done! Even if you're not very skilled, you can easily make it.
If you are confused about the process, you can scan the QR code and watch the video.
Of course, no matter how easy it is to make squishy, ​​there may be some parts that are difficult for children.
Mom will be frustrated too.
But until the child asks for help first, the mother should just watch quietly from the side.
If you praise and encourage your child to create their own squishy, ​​they will feel a sense of accomplishment and satisfaction when they complete the squishy.
