Everything you need to know about them?

You’ll shell out a lot more than they’re worth to buy a couple for your kids and by this time next year, they’ll be in a drawer somewhere collecting dust.

The kids just need to go out and play instead of being tied to video games all day. There would be fewer Ritalin and Adderall prescriptions too.

Public school teachers have reported that Kids are VERY stressed out now-a-days with trump as POTUS .

Besides worrying about Climate change they are scared of being deported.

And losing their health care.

And possible war.

Spinners and puppies can help.

My middle school kid said that everyone in his school has these. He made a point that they are not just for kids with ADHD.

Sure, these spinning devices are low-friction. But they are not zero-friction devices! Therefore, they will release heat and contribute to global warming.

I demand that these spinners be banned! Or, at the very least, a percentage of each sale should be sent to Al Gore.

All I wanna know is

WHEN IS MINE ARRIVING!!!!????

Two of my kids and I ordered these. I love to play with things while I work or concentrate or wait in lines, etc. One of the kids has special needs and he uses silly putty and ball bouncing to calm him. We ordered one version of these little cubes from some kickstarter. And I HAVE NOTHING OFFICIAL TO FIDGET WITH YET!!

So, basically, the kids at school just spin these things around?

We did that with Bobby and it didn’t cost us anything but some detention time.

In the 3d printing community, these are a hot topic because they are being printed and sold as fast as the printers can crank them out. The big question is, when will the fad end?

Is this the same as the old “Fidget” advertised on TV from Los Angeles forty four years ago? I remember the sexual innuendoes in the adds with some very sexy woman selling the product. She ended by saying to get one for your man as “It will be the best ten dollar Fidget he ever got!”

First, a kid brought one to my Sunday School class. I told him it was annoying, and he said he was encouraged to have it at school. I said that kind of claptrap is reason #834 that I homeschool, and please put it in your pocket now.

Last week, I read about them in the Wall Street Journal. Last night, two boys at Cub Scouts had them. I assume it's going to get worse before it gets better. However, given the half-life of fads these days, it will probably be gone before activities start up again in September.
