Review on Fat Brain Toys Whirly Squigz by Gary Zielinski

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Great idea, fun and interesting, needs improvement

I hung it on the glass door and as soon as our little grandson saw it he squeaked with delight and then played with it for hours. They are well made to survive toddler play, flexible and fun. I was surprised to see how much bigger they are than regular spinners which makes them even better. Great entertainment! The only complaint I have (which is why I took off a star) is that the suction cups on it are made out of the same textured silicone as the spinners and won't stick to any surface. I have found that the suction cups will stay attached for at least a few hours when wet, but will also loosen over time. I didn't manage to stick all day. In fact, when one of them fell during the night, my husband and I got really scared (e.g. "What was that sound? Oh! That was weird! The door is closed, so they're always ready to shut it." play when the grandkids come but that's impossible. Would love to see this company improve suction cups! If they ever do it will be great!
