The MINI Fidget
This is for everyone!
If you choose the "Rainbow Pride" color, the satin color is randomly chosen. If you you have a color request put it in the order notes.
Approximate size is similar to Credit Card or Drivers License (3" x 4"), 4" x 5" if you include satin edge and key ring.
This is the MINI FIDGET. Each one is hand crafted at Blankets by Brian, and assembled one at a time in our Utah shop. They ARE NOT MASS PRODUCED in another country. We are so very proud of the detail that is put into each one of these Fidget Toys and that we are making each one with love.
The soft plush Minky fur has a pampering effect, with dozens of tactile surfaces. When you move and manipulate the marbles inside the blanket, it will help to relax your mind and body. Squeeze, pet, or "fidget" with the luxury soft "BUNNY" faux-fur and satin edges, it’s an amazing sensory toy. Elderly people, working adults, children, students, patients, or anyone who has trouble staying focused will experience the relaxing effect. Fidget tools can help you calm down when feeling overwhelmed by providing a sensory output. Use it while waiting in line, restaurants or doctors offices, the Mini Fidget can help individuals by giving them something safe to do or hold with their hands, rather than touching things around them.
What you'll be getting... The Mini is approximately 3" x 4" or the size of a credit card, 4" x 5" if you include satin trim edge and the key ring. The BUNNY Faux-Fur Minky is on both sides, & the satin on just one edge. The front and back is a densely packed, silky smooth Minky Faux-Fur from our "BUNNY" collection. Currently we have TWELVE colors to choose from. Hidden within the Mini Fidget are 2 marbles that can be pushed around. It also has a key ring on one edge, attached with a satin ribbon. You can make a custom color requests, by email or call us in the studio.
What Are Fidget Tools/Toys?
Fidget tools and toys are devices small enough to fit in your hand or on your lap, which allow people to repeatedly manipulate them in numerous ways. The goal of such tools is to provide a purposeless, movement-based activity. Especially useful in helping children/adults with autism spectrum disorder (ASD) with self-regulation. Hand fidgets can help manage anxiety, improve attention/ability to focus, or even help someone calm down when dealing with a surge of emotions such as extreme anger or frustration.
Research for Fidget Toys.
Matthew Lorber, MD, Child Psychiatrist. Lenox Hill Hospital in New York
“If you are trying to focus on a task, but your hands are busy doing something else, it forces your brain to increase your efforts to focus on the task at hand. There have been small-scale studies that show people with ADHD do better on tasks if given some sort of outlet to get out their energy, to distract their hands. There have been studies that have shown in general that someone with ADHD with something to fidget with—such as tapping a pen (OR A QUIET FIDGET BLANKET)—perform better on tasks.”
Bridget Gilormini, director of PACER Center’s Simon Technology Center
“Fidgets give the user an opportunity to give their hands or bodies something to do, and allows their brain to then focus on the task at hand, such as listening to a teacher or reading.”

SUPERIOR QUALITY & Cleaning Suggestions: I am using 100% polyester products. Except for the Glass/Plastic marbles, the satin and material are made of polyester. The Fidget Blanket was designed with safety in mind. A safe, user-friendly experience. Guaranteed to last for many years! It's easily washed and very durable. They are made to use the same bigger blanket washing instructions. Wash in COLD water with other Blankets by Brian products. NEVER use Fabric softeners!! Do NOT Dry with heat. I will hang to dry or tumble dry with no heat.
WARNING: POSSIBLE CHOKING HAZARD! This toy contains Marbles INSIDE the Fidget Blanket, and under "normal/intended use" cannot be removed. However, if the toy becomes compromised (torn, cut, or ripped open) a baby could potentially remove the marbles from its secure enclosure. Therefore, it's not recommended for children under 3 years old. The Fidget Blanket is ideal for children aged 5 and up. Do not let pets chew on this toy, if the marbles were removed it could be a choking hazard to them also.
