hand2mind Grows Viral BubblePlush Line With Three New Characters

After a rapid TikTok Shop sellout, Vernon Hills-based hand2mind is expanding its BubblePlush Yoga Ball Buddies collection. The company introduced Sasha the Confident Cat, Flint the Adventurous Dragon, and Shiloh the Steady Sloth, aiming to capitalize on high demand for movement-based, screen-free educational play for children.

The new characters join the original lineup of Penguin, Puppy, and Unicorn, which gained popularity for integrating physical activity with emotional regulation. Each toy includes 10 double-sided yoga pose cards, designed to guide children through stretching and balancing exercises. CMO Elana Ruffman noted that the expansion reflects a strong market appetite for tools that blend mindfulness with active play.

Accessibility is also increasing as the brand moves into physical retail. Starting in October, the original characters will arrive at 222 Meijer stores nationwide. While Sasha and Flint are hitting general retail and Amazon, Shiloh remains an Amazon exclusive. Beyond physical products, hand2mind is deepening its digital presence through new partnerships with YogaPalooza and GoNoodle, extending the reach of its movement-focused educational mission.
