Fidget spinners are absolutely HUGE right now! This is baffling to a lot of people, because they seem like useless toys. If you are one of the people who thinks fidget spinners are incredibly stupid and just a fad, you're probably in the minority.

The fact is, people absolutely LOVE these little spinning gadgets, and you might be surprised that to learn that as of the writing of this post, nineteen of the twenty best selling toys on Amazon were fidget spinners of some sort!

There have even been lots of claims that fidget spinners have therapeutic value, and are especially useful in helping kids with ADHD focus. However, in this Time.com article, that claim has been disputed by many psychologists who say that there have no been peer-reviewed studies nor scientific evidence to support the idea that they have therapeutic qualities.

Teachers seem to be on the fence when it comes to these gadgets. The majority of teachers find them to be a nuisance and have banned them from the classroom, yet other teachers say they have seen a marked difference in students with low attention spans.

While most people are under the impression that fidget spinners are just a fad, there is a lot of evidence to the contrary. The fact is, fidget and stress reducing toys have been around for years, and they are just as popular with adults as they are with children. Stress balls are considered "fidget items," and they have long been a favorite of office workers and high-powered executives. In fact, fidget items were being used before these types of toys were even developed. If you've ever sat at your desk and clicked a ball point pen over and over -- guess what? You've used a fidget tool!
