Expandable Breathing Ball Sphere - Breathing Visual, Fidget Toys Expands from 6 to 12" Expanding Sphere for Kids & Adult

I bought this because I have always wanted one and I thought it would make for a great visual stim for myself and it does. Although sometimes the pieces that connect will pop out and I have to fix them. It's an easy enough fix unless the pieces eventually break fully. It's made of plastic so my expectations on it breaking eventually are average expectations. As I stated previously though it's not bad and it's visually satisfying for me until I notice a piece that has popped out and I need to fix it, it's good. It's quiet so it could be taken on car trips/traveling/etc yet it's not small enough that you would be able to keep it on your person unless you carry it in backpack/large bag. Once again, it's plastic (the entire thing) the connection pieces are small. If you give this to a little one who you already are aware is rough with their fidgets/stims/toys this is not for them. It's light, MADE OF PLASTIC, and the pieces could break. Expecting this to be indestructible and thinking it would never, ever, EVER break is silly. All things break. For what it is I enjoy this fidget/stim and I will keep it. Will I buy another? It's a possibility.

I ordered both this product and the original Hoberman Mini Sphere. This product is the best of the two. Much more sturdy and thick, the Hoberman sphere feels very flimsy and easy to break. The quality of this one’s material causes it to have a tiny bit of resistance. So if you like to sling it up in the air and watch it expand, then you just have to sling it a little harder than you would the Hoberman. Definitely a better buy for children!!! I will be gifting this one to my child and keeping the Hoberman for my office desk. Both are very satisfying to play with. One thing that may be a problem for some buyers is the color that it came in. I thought that I was buying the rainbow themed one, the sphere the cake is all blue and black. But my boy will like that better anyway!

But physically it didn't last long.

I work with elementary school students and they absolutey love this breathing ball! It is a great fidget toy and calming strategy to help students focus on breathing. It is great quality and the perfect size.

This is such a fun toy! I saw it in my cousin's house, she said her 4 year old loves it so much, while we were there my 2 year old nephew started playing with it and loved it so much. He loved that it gets big and small, and so he kept making it big and then small and announcing which one it was lol. Overall it's a fun toy to play with and very easy to use that my two year old nephew played with ease. I had to order this one for him because he enjoyed it so much. It's great quality and a great find! Highly recommend it.

I have 2 kids under 3. Was hoping this would be a fun game to do with them. It falls apart extremely easily. Cheap plastic. I feel this was more of a dollar tree item compared to the money I spent on it. Don't let a child handle it unless you want it to break immediately.

he likes it

Loved it, after care kids had so much fun and it was interesting to them!

Fun

Cumple su función, es bastante útil como herramienta de regulación emocional. El motivo de la calificación es la calidad del plástico, estaría perfecto si tuviera un poquito más de calidad para garantizar su resistencia y duración.

Very cheaply made and falls apart easily.

For S$16, I did not expect such a poor quality product. it arrived poorly wrapped in a small loose and thin bubble wrap sheet. The plastic parts are poorly cut out, and two of the spokes were not connected to the product properly

Great if you have an over dominating partner, friend or family member. Expand and contract while breathing. Even good for working on shame issues. Thinking you’re not good enough from childhood experiences. Amazing for therapy.
