A Lanarkshire firm is hoping to cash in on the push popper craze sweeping playgrounds across the country.
The anti-stress pads - a little like reusable bubble wrap - have become a sensation thanks to viral TikTok videos.
The new toy resembles an endless task as after you’ve popped out all of one side, just flip over and start popping again.
And the silicone sensation even comes in a keyring form, meaning you can take the sensory toy anywhere you go.
Kids are now flocking to convenience stores to snap up the latest must-have playthings, which cost around £3.99 each.
And Cambuslang toy wholesaler H. Grossman has placed an order for 2.4 million of the brightly coloured toys in an effort to keep on top of the craze.
The poppers come in all kinds of shapes and sizes, including unicorns and dinosaurs, which are selling out at corner shops.
H. Grossman's first order, which arrived in February, went to major toy retailers and through buying group Toymaster.
It has since fed into the convenience market through wholesalers including Perkins Group, Suleman & Co, Sher Brothers, LTC Wholesale and Clyde Importers.
Their latest order included five new products: Jumbo Push Popper Mat, Dinosaur Push Popper, Unicorn Push Popper, Rainbow Push Popper and Pineapple Push Popper.
Other variants include the Fidget Track, which is a jointed fiddle toy that bends and flexes into a range of different shapes, and the Pea Pod Push Popper Key Chain.
“These have been really well received by a number of our customers who are looking to target a pocket money purchase,” said Perkins Group operations manager Darren Walker.
“We highlight any products that we know will sell well and push poppers are certainly on trend at the moment.
“We are waiting for more stock and looking forward to seeing the line extensions. I have a nine-year-old daughter so I know that these are the latest craze, she really loves them.”
