Are you looking for aids that help you stay focused? In this category you will find products that make it easier to concentrate, from fidgets and stress balls to a concentration screen.
Concentrating becomes harder when there is too much sensory input or when your hands are restless. Aids to help you concentrate give the senses just enough to do, so your attention stays calmly on the task. A Chewigem Hand Fidget or Fidget Clip gives the hands something to do, a Big Friends stress ball or Crazy Aaron’s putty helps release tension, and a Concentration Screen Basic means fewer distractions on the table. A Breathing Ball or tactile Ark SensaStones also help to support sensory processing. Handy for children and adults who want to stay focused at school, at work or at home.
When choosing a concentration aid, the main thing to consider is the way someone focuses:
Feel free to combine a calming aid with a fidget or screen. That way you find out step by step which approach works best for staying focused.
A fidget gives the hands a calm, repetitive movement, so excess energy has an outlet and attention stays on the task more easily.
They are suitable for children and adults who find it hard to keep their attention, for example at school, while studying or at work.
A concentration screen shields off the immediate surroundings on the table, so there is less visual distraction and it becomes easier to focus.
For many people a fidget works the other way round: because the hands are busy, the mind can focus better on the task.
Yes, many aids such as fidgets and putty are quiet and compact, so they are easy to use in the classroom without disturbing others.
