JD 2 I bought these stress-relief toys for my 8-year-old daughter, but my 6 and 4-year-old sons wanted some of them, also. Unfortunately, even my daughter ripped hers within minutes of getting them. They won't hold up to much squeezing and manipulation without tearing and wearing out, and the small ones attract dirt like crazy. They're very cute but next time I'll just order a more boring traditional stress ball. These were definitely not worth the price.
