- What is the Gump Ball made of?
- It has a velvety soft outer shell around a memory gel filling. The gel lets it return to its original shape after each squeeze.
- Does it really glow in the dark?
- It glows in the light, so charge it under a lamp or daylight and it will glow afterward. The glow fades over time and recharges with light.
- Is it good for kids?
- It is a simple squeeze toy that suits most ages, but the soft gel core means it is not meant for biting or rough play. Check that the shell is intact before giving it to a young child.
- How does it compare with a foam stress ball?
- The gel core rebounds more slowly and feels softer than foam, which gives a more deliberate squish. Foam balls are firmer and cheaper to replace but lose their shape faster.
- Can I clean it?
- Wipe the shell with a damp cloth and mild soap, then let it air dry. Do not put it in a washing machine or soak it, since water can damage the gel core.
- Is it quiet to use?
- Yes. There are no clicking parts or beads, so squeezing it makes little to no noise, which makes it usable in an office or classroom.
