Kali is a dedicated mother who is doing everything she can to support the unique needs of each of her children. To provide them with a supportive learning environment, Kali decided to homeschool her children. However, she quickly realized that homeschooling comes with many unexpected expenses, adding strain to her already limited budget. A variety of fidget and sensory items can be used by all five of her children would be a huge help to Kali during this period. Having several options would allow the children to rotate the fidgets and choose one or two to take with them to school, use during homeschool lessons, or keep nearby when they feel anxious, overwhelmed, or have difficulty focusing. These simple tools would help Kali support her children in regulating their emotions, staying engaged in learning, and coping with challenging moments, while she continues to do her best to meet their individual needs.
