Vanblue Fidget Toy 10Pcs Marble Mesh Sensory Marble and Mesh Fidget Stress Relieve Toy for Kids Adults ADHD Add Autism

This is a great fidget for environments where you might not want to draw too much attention to yourself. It's satisfying and really helps with boredom and stress. It's compact and silent so you really can use it anywhere, anytime. I prefer using the grey or black color when I'm around people.

Piano Teacher here. Some students were "noodling" at the piano more and more while I was instructing and it was becoming distracting. Some had pulled tassels off the piano bench cover through their constant fidgeting. Instead of continuing the reminding, I remembered seeing these in a teacher friends "favorite things" links and clicked through to purchase. INSTANTLY solved the problem. No more nooding! Even students who never played while I was instructing LOVE them! Students are respectful with them and always set them down WITHOUT being asked when it is time to play. I will always have these in my studio.

It was nice, but the stitching came loose on one. The wires on it broke. Overall, it was good.

The marble inside the mesh bag is durable and both ends are sewn, so it does not come apart easily. I have had and have students who need help in focusing and this fits the bill. It is small, so it does not create chaos (as long as the teacher reminds them it is a tool, not a toy and it is there to help them.) Constant reminders are needed. Students use it in their non dominant hand and move the marble back and forth in its sheath, while they focus on the task at hand be it writing, computing or listening attentively to instructions. It does not take other students off task or impede their learning. Please be a " broken record," that this is not a toy but a tool to help them do their best at school and their focus will improve.

Either the material on the outside or the marble on the inside are not very smooth. It takes a lot of effort to send the marble back and forth. It has too much drag for the person these were gifted to.

These Fidgets are fun and colorful. I'm happy with my purchase. That being said, after a few hours of use - some of the threading started to come loose.I ended up being about to pop the marble out of some of them pretty easily.I wouldn't say they "broke" though.It took about 3-4 mins & doubled over thread to sew it back up again.Now they are perfectly fine.If you don't mind possibly needing to reinforce the ends, you'll love these.We had some friends over and while we were chatting I handed them out. One of them told me later, "When I first started playing with it, I thought it was a mediocre fidget toy..... Then I subconsciously played with it for 3 hours straight while we talked"He then texted me later that he accidentally pocketed it at the end of the night! Haha!

Marble mesh is one of my favorite classroom fidgets-- it's quiet, handheld, durable, and not so enticing that it's distracting. These are great examples of the marble mesh design, and I highly recommend them.

These fidget toys are perfect! I use them in class in grad school to help me to focus and also manage my anxiety. They are super discrete and quiet so no one knows I’m fidgeting under the desk!
