Yogi Fidget Toy ($28 for two)

The fidget toy is playable with just one hand, making fidgeting super discreet. You can use one at the dinner table, under your office desk, or at a classroom desk. The yogi comes in a pack of two so that you can pick and choose which one you want to play with.

StoryJewellry Fidget Rings ($20-$39)

Fidge rings are perfect if you're looking for a more discreet toy or one to always have on hand. Slip this on your finger and worry the beads back and forth whenever you need to work off some nervous energy.

Shashibo Shape Shifting Box ($25)

This box transforms into 70 different shapes, so you'll never get bored. It's made with a strong internal magnet system that allows multiple cubes to connect together so that you can collect more to build even larger structures. The box fits comfortably in your hand for ease of use.

Scione Fidget Spinners Toys ($11, originally $13 for six)

Fidget spinners are a cult favorite for a reason. This pack comes with six different-colored spinner toys, so you swap out a new one each day of the work week. Take them with you wherever you go, and pull one out when you need it most.

Work on your hand strength and satisfy your fidget needs simultaneously with these putties. The putty comes in a range of firmness levels — from extra soft to extra firm, depending on your needs. You'll love being able to soothe and strengthen at the same time.

Speks Geode Magnetic Fidget Sphere ($30)

Use this sphere to build structures that you can break down. The best part? If you shake them in your hand, they'll magically self-align. Simply fidget around and build your favorite configuration — it's a great distraction that helps you destress.

Snap and Click Fidget Cubes ($6, originally $9 for six)

These fidget toys can pivot into different shapes, so your hands are always occupied. One reviewer wrote, "I've been looking for more fidgets as I work through my ADHD, and this one is by far the best." Use them to break nervous habits like nail biting and more.

Infinity Cube Fidget Toy ($6)

This cube comes in 13 different designs and can easily fit into your palm. It is a tad noisy when used, though, so make sure that you're on mute if you're using it during a Zoom meeting.

Jumbo Water Trick Snake Filled With Sparkle Streamers ($13)

This water toy is satisfying to squeeze. Plus, it brings back a bit of nostalgia from the '90s. The toy is filled with colored water and shimmery sparkling streamers so that you never get bored of playing with it. Just be careful — it can fall out of your hand rather quickly.
