Do you mean fidget spinners ? They have worked for a short time with a couple of our clients with dementia. I have found that the fidget cubes have worked better and are easy to hold in the hand.

Thanks Erica. I think they are different but you have answered my question, they work for a short time and that is what I have found.
We found the muffs and pillows with buttons and bells caused a problem with low cognative people as they could pull these items off and put them in their mouths.
A colleague referred this resource to assist in implementing our activities program many years ago. I felt, I had struck 'gold.' It has been immeasurable in assisting to provide new material and ideas to stimulate our clients. I will be a member for my working life. Thank you!
