This year's fidget spinner? How pop its have become the latest toy trend

Pop its - sometimes called push poppers - are particularly popular as sensory toys, but with over 3 billion tags on Tiktok and boxes of the toys emptying in Irish stores, their appeal seems to be spreading 

Pop its or push poppers have been hot ticket items in Irish shops.

Tiktok’s newest craze is here and Irish stores have been ramping up to meet the demand for 2021’s version of the fidget spinner.

Pop its, or push poppers as they are sometimes known, are simple devices. Made of plastic and silicone, the colourful toys usually come in disc or square shapes and work similarly to bubble wrap - except there is no end with these reusable items. You push the bubbles down, flip over, and push again.
