    Sensory Toys FAQs

    What are sensory toys?
    As their apt name suggests, sensory toys are named for their stimulation of the five senses: sight, touch, taste, smell, and sound. Though fidget and sensory toys have fairly recently risen to popularity, they’ve been in our world for decades. Vintage childhood toy collectibles like yo-yos and Slinkys and arts and crafts like clay, and more are all sensory toys.

    What do sensory toys help with?
    Fidget and sensory toys have been shown in many studies to help with conditions like anxiety and ADHD. People experiencing anxiety or who are easily distracted often find that toys like stim toys are a great outlet for anxious behavior. It helps many people curb anxious nail biting, picking, and more. Simply having an object to keep their hands busy can greatly alleviate stress and have a significantly calming effect.

    Should I buy my kids sensory toys?
    Sensory toys can be a helpful outlet for children of all ages. Kids have so much energy and excitement—it can be hard for them to sit still! Many parents find that the introduction of a fidget toy can add just enough activity to help kids sit through class better and pay more attention. Moreover, many fidget and sensory toys can help in a child’s development. Like arts and crafts, sensory toys for toddlers help kids develop the fine-motor skills they need as they grow.

    Is there a difference between fidget and sensory toys?
    Generally speaking, sensory toys are designed to stimulate the senses, while fidget toys like small puzzle games are designed to occupy your hands in order to calm or improve your focus. Many fidget toys are sensory toys, but not all sensory toys are fidget toys!
