This is a sponsored post on behalf of Therapy Shoppe. I received the Focusing Fitget Kit in exchange for a review. All thoughts and opinions are 100% my own.
Emma is her certainly her mother’s child! No matter where we go, my daughter, Emma always has her bag with her and its filled with her toys and things to keep her busy! Emma watches me as I get ready to leave the house and if I grab my purse she runs and grabs one too! The bigger the better…a girl after my own heart! What I have started doing is making sure her bag is packed prior to us leaving so I am not held up by her packing her bag!
What you will find in Emma’s Bag…
iPad Mini
American Girl Wellie Wisher Kendall
Cosmetic Case filled with Shopkins
Focusing Fidget Kit #2 from the Therapy Shoppe
Baseball Cap
Extra Pair of Undies (for accidents…always be prepared)
Fruit Snacks
Usually, there is also a juice box, stuffed animal, lipgloss and crayons and a small coloring book or notepad and possibly a fidget spinner! In the summer my sister purchased the kids fidget spinners, Emma always keeps one in her bag and she kept one in the car cupholder. These were excellent for her since we noticed that she was doing a lot of playing with her hands.
During the summer when Darrick and I noticed that Emma was doing LOTS of fidgeting. She was constantly playing with her hands and it was in a weird way! We immediately asked her doctor about it and they said it was nothing to worry about. We were told it was probably time to go back to school and she had extra energy. At one of Emma’s weekly Occupational Therapy appointments, I explained what was going on to the therapist. She also said that Emma may have extra energy because she is at home and she isn’t doing as much as she would if she was in school.
When we mentioned what was going on to her therapist she suggested I take a look at the Therapy Shoppe website because they had tons of items to help with fidgeting! And what do you know I found their Fidget Toys!!! I couldn’t decide on what I wanted or what Emma would like…however, I found the Fidget Kits where you got more bang for your buck. You received multiple items in one kit, and I personally thought this was great in case she became bored with one item there were plenty more to choose from!
We picked the Focusing Fidget Kit #2
“The finger-fidget kit features lots of our therapists’ favorite newest fidgets: a Super Silly Tongue Monster, a Squeezy Globe Ball, Spiky Pickle Fidget, a tin of Thinking Putty, a Single Serving of Playfoam, Giant Nut and Bolt, 2 Porcupine Topper Fidgets, 3 Fuzzy Tie-Dye Fidgets, 2 Starburst Linkers, and a darling little Squeezie Animal (website).”
Emma loved this kit when it arrived! Actually, both children loved this kit! DJ picked up the ball because well if you give him any kind of ball he wants to throw it and play with it no matter how hard or soft it is. Emma loved the Porcupine Topper Fidgets! I think the texture of the porcupine toppers caught her attention!
