The Anatomy of a Fidget Cube

The Anatomy of a Fidget Cube

Captiv8 Supply: So… What exactly is a fidget cube and what does it do? This multi-mechanism is billed as ‘great for those that can’t quite keep still and need a fidget phenomenon to stop the strains and stresses whilst working’. This pocket-sized cube has one side meant for your imprinted logo, and the other five sides meant for clicking, spinning, gliding and more. Forbes even dubbed Fidget Spinners as the “must-have office toy for adults for 2017.” And while these cubes are fun and trendy products, they have taken on an even more important responsibility, too: They have been proven to assist those with autism, anxiety, and other disorders.

Anatomy of a Fidget Cube:

In an article from CBS New York, Alice Gainer reports, “Mental health experts say fidget toys are nothing new, they’ve been using them for years.

“I think a Slinky is one of the earliest fidget toys,” psychologist Dr. Harris Stratyner said.

He said fidget toys are often used by doctors while treating patients with autism, anxiety, obsessive compulsive disorder and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder.

“When they fidget with a fidget toy, it takes their mind off — it soothes their mind. So it’s mind and body are one,” Stratyner said.

He said the toys can really help just about anyone focus.

“You can also generate ideas. It just centers you,” Stratyner said. “And when you’re fidgeting with something, your hands are feeding back to your brain a signal that you’re involved in a repetitive task. That repetitive task frees up your mind.”

With fidget cubes taking the industry by storm, it is a great time for your business to capitalize on this trend. When it comes to your budget, these fidget cubes are in the perfect price range. Choose from various color combinations and imprint your logo to advertise your brand in a fun and exciting way.
