I LOVE this toy for my toddler… and myself. This is the perfect toy to reduce stress. It’s small and compact and super convenient to carry around as needed!

Fidget bands are a tried and true way to help students concentrate. They are a safe way to help students with restless feet that may often tip their chairs or move chairs so often that it is distracting to others. You place this band around the bands of a chair.
