My Project

Movement is an essential aspect for many students, especially those with special needs. However, traditional classroom settings often require prolonged periods of stillness, leading to restlessness and an inability to concentrate. Fidget toys offer a solution by allowing students to engage in discreet movement without needing to leave the classroom or disrupt their peers. These toys provide a tactile and sensory experience that helps students channel their excess energy and enhance focus on their tasks.

To meet the diverse needs of our students, I would like to be able to offer a variety of Rubik's Cubes, Stretchy Bendable toys, Snap and Click Toys, Robot Fidget Spinners and more.

By incorporating these fidget toys into our classrooms, students with special needs will have opportunities to engage actively in their learning without feeling confined or restless. Providing appropriate outlets for movement and sensory stimulation will create an environment that supports their overall well-being and academic success.
