An excellent therapeutic tool
For anyone working in the psychiatric community, as I do, you know the value of stress-balls, also known as fidgets. For kids, adolescents, or adults, for that matter, who have ADHD or Spectrum Disorders, stress-balls/fidgets help channel energy that would otherwise be disruptive or socially unacceptable. When I was offered a set of stress-balls from Convenient Products for evaluation/review purposes, I could hardly pass up this opportunity.<br /><br />These are quality made stress-balls, and has been the case in the past, are not easily destroyed. I use them in the morning groups, in the facility where I work, and the kids and adolescents request them. I see them squeezing them appropriately and not trying to pick them apart. I truly believe that the presentation is part of the appeal. These balls come in a variety of interests--various balls used in sports, globes, and happy faces. Usually, I allow the kids to pick their preference. Data will confirm that fewer problem behaviors occur when an option for channeling energy is used. I am a firm believer in these products.<br /><br />I highly recommend this product from Creative Products. My kids seem happier during morning groups, and they even request these stress balls at other times of the day in an effort to self regulate their behaviors.
