Squishmallows are the marshmallow-soft plush that took over bedrooms, and the 16 inch is the size that matters: big enough to use as a pillow and hug in a car, small enough to carry. Austin the Avocado is an original character with a pit for a face and a cult following, and unlike the limited ones it is usually available at list price.
It is the Christmas gift for a kid who collects them and the birthday present for a kid who has not started yet, which lasts about a week. It also works as a get-well gift for a child stuck in bed, since it is washable and squashes flat in a bag.
All ages, surface wash or a gentle machine cycle. Twenty-five dollars for the plush that ends up in every photo for a year.
