This quirky dog park puzzle or this mini Atari player might be the trick to turning that frown a little more upside down.
1. A mini inflatable tube guy for your desk to cheer you on (or remind you to take a lil' dance break whenever you overwork yourself).
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"OMG! I love this guy! These things, large and small, will ALWAYS make me laugh. My husband bought the desk version for me, and I can always count on it to make me laugh. My co-workers love it, too. People just stop by to turn him on for a quick pick-me-up. I would recommend getting the AC plug since batteries can run down fast. I think we should create a community of fellow air-dancer-havers and post clips of our little guys dancing to our favorite songs. Anyone in?" — Mark
Get it from Amazon for $11.66.
2. "Pocket World," an adult stress relief coloring book full of whimsical miniature Polly Pocket-esque worlds to color, with no two alike. I'm talking fairy gardens, tiny hygge-style living rooms, quirky restaurants, and more.

Psst — Coco Wyo has a *ton* of other cozy stress relief coloring books with different themes in their Amazon storefront!

Promising review:"One of my favorites ever!!! The idea is perfect, and the pages are all unique and fun to color, with no repetition, and the details aren't too tiny. Great for anxiety if you're doing coloring for mental health. (I hate the pages that are just tiny patterns repeated endlessly. Makes my anxiety worse.)" — Ezra Johnson
Get it from Amazon for $7.99.
3. A Lego lotus flower building kit so you can build yourself a dainty little bouquet and then sit back and admire them as decor for however long you please, no flower food or pruning required.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review: "I bought this lotus flower set for myself and it only took me a little while to make it. Each stem with flower is bagged separately, making it easy to put together. You can make the stem as long or short as you want. The leaves on the two open flowers have bendable hinged leaves so you can make them look more realistic. They look cute in a vase, and I'm very pleased with the results." — Happy Amazoner

Get it from Amazon for $11.68.
5. A cult-fave, high-quality 1000-piece Dog Park Puzzle so full of adorable details that it's just going to be a constant stream of serotonin every time you push another piece into place.

Antelope is a small business that specializes in high-quality, unique jigsaw puzzles.
Promising review: "This was my first time putting a 1000-piece puzzle together myself. Once I sorted the pieces out in sorting trays (highly recommend), I thought maybe this was a bit much for me. I started it a week ago and worked a little bit each day. I really enjoyed this. The pieces are very good quality. The details and colors are outstanding. I was constantly discovering something new I hadn't noticed before. I'm actually kinda sad I'm done, but I'll pack it away and bring it out again in about six months and have fun all over again." — ScubaReader
Get it from Amazon for $21.59 (available in 18 other whimsical designs and in multisets).
6. A set of TikTok-famous Globbles, which are about to be your favorite stress-relieving fidget toy. These colorful balls are squishy, stretchy, and stick to pretty much any flat surface you throw them at *without* leaving any messy residue. TikTokers have a blast tossing these at walls and ceilings to see the satisfying way they glom onto them.
www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com
Promising review:"I have bought these over and over again for gifts. My own children have played with these balls repeatedly. We even left one on the ceiling to see how long it would stay for. It lasted four months before we decided to take it down. Since they are so sticky, they get dirty pretty quickly. All you have to do is a quick rinse in the sink and an air dry, then you are good to go. Great for adults and children! Will be buying again." — Valerie Young
Get a set of six from Amazon for $10.99.

www.amazon.com, www.amazon.com

Amazon
Wabash Valley Farms is a small business that specializes in popcorn accessories and seasonings.
Promising review: "I purchased a variety pack of these five times. All good. Salted Caramel has a slight taste of cinnamon. The only thing that would make these better is if you could choose your own variety pack." — Dave.

Reviewers love this engaging, adorable fidget, both as a toy for kids and a stress reliever for adults.
A few reviewers with trichotillomania swear by this as a helpful alternative for picking tendencies.
Promising review: "I have a tendency to pick at my clothes when I'm bored and have nothing else to occupy my time with. I got this toy to see if it would scratch that itch and save my clothes from my boredom. It worked much better than I thought it would. The outer layer to pluck has a soft wooly feel and the under layer is very soft. Some of the strands were a bit stuck and took some effort, but most came out with only a little effort. I'll probably get some more if I know I'm going to be away from home for a while." — Terras

Standing in lines for the ride, almost EVERYONE asked me about them. They thought I bought them there, but surprisingly, NOT ONE shop at any of the Disney properties sold this. I sold one to someone in the line!" — Melissa Rae
Get a two-pack from Amazon for $8.99 (available in 13 styles).
19. Taco Cat Goat Cheese Pizza, a DEEPLY beloved, fast-paced card game suitable for kids and adults that will have everyone in fits of high stake giggles in no time. Bonus: each game only lasts 10–15 minutes, so you can go one or a few rounds depending on how much time you've got together.
Amazon
Dolphin Hat Games is a small business that specializes in family-friendly card games.
Okay, so the rules: you divvy up all the cards equally, and then all the players take turns putting down cards that have different illustrations on them, saying "taco," "cat," "goat," "cheese," and "pizza" in order. If the card put on the table matches the word that's being said in that moment, whoever slaps a hand down on the card first gets all the cards under it. You keep playing until someone comes in possession of all the cards (or until you all start craving tacos and pizza so much you drive yourselves to the nearest combination Pizza Hut and Taco Bell).
Promising review: "This game is hysterical! I played with my 7-year-old daughter and my 70-year-old father and we all enjoyed it. I haven't laughed that hard in a long time!" — bobkopolow
Get it from Amazon for $9.84.
20. A unicorn pancake mold because ingesting breakfast that ISN'T inherently magical in every single way?? Feels a bit like a scam, if you ask me! Thankfully, you can use these pretty things on eggs, too.
