    Fidget spinners can be as much as £7 in proper toy shops
    also there is a Fidget cube, you just press ball bearing type buttons and bits pop out, so you push them in again, they are even more expensive, but of course sooo desirable when you are 7!
    Beyond me, but at least it seems harmless! x

    How much:eek::eek:

    They are meant to be good for kids with ADHD and autism and the suchlike. Ironically they were brought in to help kids concentrate at school, but now they are so common that they are becoming a distraction and getting banned in schools :eek:

    My middle child has ASD, he used to have to read in class - it was the only way he could concentrate....it used to drive the teachers around the bent!
