Product Information

I’m a teacher and I went from not even knowing what they were, to having dozens of students with them in a matter of weeks. My own children were so desperate to get one that they did extra chores for weeks (like scooping the cat litter box!) to get the money to buy one! The best way to figure out if a fidget toy may work for you is to give it a try. Do fidget toys help with anxiety?

Researchers observed and videotaped the students during the 7-week intervention as well as for 3 weeks before it began.

Spinning Rings are pieces of jewelry which have a double purpose! To most people they will look like a pretty ring, but a section of the ring also spins around. Perfect for anyone that anxiously plays with their jewelry (like me!) Though fidgeting isn’t an age-specific phenomenon, it’s always a good idea to consider age before buying a fidget toy. If your child fidgets a lot, it may be helpful to try out a fidget toy to see if it helps with either concentration or stress. My children might love them, but I have to say… I don’t get it! I don’t see the appeal in them. Don’t get me wrong, I’m a fidgeter! I have a couple of rings on my fingers, just so I can fidget with them throughout the day! Fidgeting is a common human behavior that often occurs when a person is nervous, in a stressful situation, or is attempting to focus on a task or pay attention.Spiral Liquid Timers and other liquid motion toys are great for helping an upset child calm now. By focusing on the moving liquid, they fall into an almost meditative state. Ideal for children (and adults) who deal with frustration and needs ways to calm down.

I pretty much always have to be doing something with my hands, or I can’t concentrate. But to me, a spinner isn’t a “fidget” toy. It doesn’t keep my hands busy enough, so I can concentrate. It’s more of a toy that I would sit and look at, more of a distraction than something to help me focus. Fidget Spinner Alternatives Move a small ball of any color to the upper vacant position, and then keep it still. After disturbing the color positions of other balls, restore them. Infinity Cubes are a small plastic cube that is hinged in a number of places. By opening it up and folding the hinges in a different direction you can create different shapes. You can also mindlessly cycle through the different configurations. Practice and find out the rules of Rubik's Cube reduction. Through memory and spatial imagination, put the beads in the 6 vertical grooves at the fastest speed. The color is uniform. If buying for a young child, be sure the fidget toy is durable and doesn’t have any small parts that could be a choking hazard.
