Importance of Fidget Toys

Source shutterstock.com I Importance of Fidget Toys

Fidget, as described by the Cambridge dictionary, is 'to make continuous small movements because you are uncomfortable or bored'. We, humans, tend to get bored of sitting in a still position for a long time; it doesn’t matter if it is in the classroom, in the office, or even while sitting at home doing nothing. You might have noticed people playing with their pens, ties, hairs, tapping their foot, or even tearing a tissue paper while they are sitting and waiting for their flight, train, at a doctor’s clinic or some other random place. Fidget toys are meant to regulate these reflexes or at least provide a better alternative than chewing your nails unconsciously at a public place.

Fidget toys were mainly invented for the restless child who would always throw new tantrums and excuses, to not sit at a place for more than a few minutes. However, it’s not only the children, but adults also face the restlessness or anxiety problem, and these fidget toys provide some instant comfort with these conditions. Fidget toys are designed to help with calmness, focus, attention, and active listening, to name a few benefits. Different studies and researches have shown a significant amount of improvement in concentration levels with the help of sensory and movement-based activities while learning. Based on this principle, the fidget toys stimulate the left and right hemispheres of the brain at the same time and keep the negative or random thoughts at bay.
