Fidgets for Hands and Minds

Help me give my students these wonderful fidgets in order to work their hands and minds and to facilitate their learning abilities.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stella's classroom raised $594

This project is fully funded

My Project

Students with Autism and Behavior Problems need to keep their fingers and minds working with various and challenging fidgets in order to be able to function in the school system.

Please help my students be functional on a daily basis by having the opportunity to use various fidgets in order to organize their thoughts and actions.

They deserve the opportunity to be successful in their daily educational endeavors. All of these different fidgets will help my students be able to concentrate while learning as well as to organize their thoughts and actions.

With your support and help in providing these different types of fidgets, my students will have the opportunity to learn the skills they need to become functional adults.
