"There's Real Science Behind Fidget Spinners" - Joshua A. Krisch
In recent months, Fidget spinners have exploded in popularity. Also, to school bans. Are educators missing out on an opportunity to bring a therapeutic, stress relieving device into the classroom? Perhaps, shared Pilar Trelles, MD, a psychiatrist and autism expert at The Mount Sinai Hospital. "I think we all engage in some sort of fidgeting," she told Fatherly. "It's a coping strategy. I tell my patients to use stress balls, or to do something with their hands, to help them be more present."
