Teacher Created Resources® Fidget Box, 18 Pieces

Lots of cool stuff inside. I like how it's random things in the box because my daughter and I took turns closing our eyes and picking out a toy inside and trading them after. Really fun for kids. Great for the cost to keep them busy and playing pretend on selling them or just to keep their hands busy in the car. Nothing small enough to choke on except for the pencil toppers but any kid 3+ shouldn't have an issue if they don't put things in their mouth

My daughter bought this with her allowance. Came with a good amount of fidgets for the price.

As an educator, I am always on the lookout for tools that can engage and support my students, especially those who struggle with restlessness or difficulty focusing. The Teacher Created Resources® Fidget Box has proven to be a valuable addition to my classroom, providing a simple yet effective solution for fidgety learners.First and foremost, the fidget box offers a wide variety of fidget toys, with 18 different pieces included. From squishy stress balls to textured sensory tools, there is something for every student's preference. The assortment ensures that students can find a fidget that suits their needs, promoting self-regulation and concentration during learning activities.The quality of the fidget toys is satisfactory. While they are not the most durable on the market, they have held up well to regular classroom use. The materials used are safe and non-toxic, which is of utmost importance when working with young students.One aspect I appreciate about this fidget box is its versatility. The toys can be used discreetly without causing distractions to other students. They are small and portable, allowing students to keep them at their desks or in their pockets. The quiet nature of these fidgets ensures that they don't disrupt the overall classroom environment.Furthermore, the fidget box has been beneficial for students with attention difficulties or sensory processing needs. By providing an outlet for their restlessness or need for tactile stimulation, these fidgets can help students stay focused on the task at hand. I have noticed a positive impact on their ability to concentrate during independent work or group activities.The packaging and storage of the fidget box are practical. The clear plastic box makes it easy to see and access the different toys. It also facilitates organization and prevents loss or damage. Additionally, the box itself is compact, making it convenient to transport between classrooms or take on field trips.However, it is worth noting that fidget toys may not be suitable for every student or every learning environment. Some students may find them more distracting than helpful, and it is important to assess individual needs before incorporating fidgets into the classroom. Additionally, while the variety of fidgets in this box is decent, it would be even better if it included a few more options to cater to a broader range of preferences.In conclusion, the Teacher Created Resources® Fidget Box is a valuable tool for educators looking to support students with fidgeting tendencies or attention difficulties. With a good assortment of fidget toys, it offers a means for students to channel their restlessness in a constructive manner. While it may not be suitable for every student, it has proven to be beneficial for many. I recommend this fidget box to teachers seeking a simple and effective solution to engage and support their fidgety learners.

I feel slightly conflicted because I know that everyone will feel a different way, but I didn’t find this box of fidget toys to be very appealing. The toys are too small, simple, and boring. I get that some kids may really like these, but my daughter who was 5 when I showed her these, wasn’t that fond of them. She played with some of them for a bit, but they didn’t keep her interested. Maybe we just aren’t true fidgeters or something. I will say that the presentation with the simple box was fine and that I think they did properly advertise what comes in the box. I just don’t think these fidget toys are for us. I also just don’t see the value in it. For over $20, I found the value to be very lacking. If the company donated some proceeds to a good and relevant cause like to children with special needs, then I could probably justify it. Otherwise each individual toy seems like you could find it in a gum ball machine for like 25 cents if that. I like the idea behind it though.

My youngest daughter is attention deficit and has a hyperactive disorder as well so getting her to sit still and actually focus on things is nearly impossible most days, especially when we go out into public where she is required to sit for an extended amount of time.This is absolutely genius and I can't believe I haven't thought of getting her a little kit like this sooner. These actually keeper attention and it gives her something to do, touch and hold while we are sitting in our church service that doesn't have any Sunday school for kids. These have been an absolute lifesaver. Our service is 2 hours long and these hold her attention the entire time! There is a wide variety of little gadgets and toys with different textures, shapes and functions. Her favorite toys to use are the little marble in the mash contraption and the little squishy toys that you can probably tell she has been using a lot because of how dirty they are. These toys in my pictures have been used for a total of 2 weeks and have been holding up just fine. I noticed that some of the other reviewers felt that these are a little flimsy and cheap looking but they have held up well so far after 2 weeks of use to my daughter who is not very careful with her toys at all. She is usually very rough on them and so far they have stood the test.Highly recommend these, especially to children who have focusing issues like my own.
