What the testers said: “A very eye catching resource! The children were extremely excited about the products when I unpacked the bag, which itself is an excellent idea. The thought that had gone into the bag was impressive and we had been looking for something similar for a child who struggles with laces and buttons. Great for helping to develop coordination and fine motor skills. Throughout the duration of the trial the children enjoyed playing with all of the fidgets.”
