SET OF 50 TINS!
Give a personal tin of Brain Putty to everyone who's doing some thinking. Active hands mean active minds.
Brain Putty will bounce, but with enough force, it will also shatter. It will stretch, but you can also tear it. It can even be made to snap.
Convenient see-through storage bag contains 50 tins of 2 colors-- Lime Green and Hot Orange. Each tin is 1.75" diameter.
To open the putty, simply press down on the cover until you hear a 'pop' and pull up from the sides. To close the container, put the top back on and press the sides of the cover

Customer Reviews
Enrich the "sensory diet" of your learners. Our "fiddles" may look like toys to the untrained eye, but they are truly serious learning tools. Kinesthetic learners will focus better and absorb your material more quickly if they have something to do with their hands.
- VARIETY: Offer a variety of "toys."
- TOOLS not TOYS: You can either let these "toys" speak for themselves or let people know that they are "tools" and help some people focus better.
- FLOATING ATTENTION: Explain the idea of floating attention – the part of your mind that wanders when a lecture or conversation doesn't take your complete focus. Instead of daydreaming, which takes your mind completely off topic, fidgeting and doodling can use that energy more productively.
- DEBRIEF: Mid-way, or after a meeting, ask your group about the impact of the "toys." Find out if they were found to be helpful or distracting. Ask of there are other favorite fidget toys they'd like to have on hand.
- STAND AND STRETCH: Don't rely only on fidget toys, invite your group to stand, stretch, or walk around if they need to get the blood moving back to their brain.
- FOOD AND WATER: Remember food and water are also critical to maintaining focus over long periods of time.
