Just that, really. DS has dyspraxia and endlessly bites his nails, picks at skin (gross, sorry!), rocks chairs etc. I am keen to find something for him to fiddle with to (try to) dissuade him from all the other stuff. School has given him some clicky plastic thing called a fiddle stick I think .Anyone have any good recommendations for things that might occupy a fidgeter? TIA.

My DS has these, after nearly choking in class by chewing a keyring. Seems to have helped him.

Many thanks for that tip, Easylife. Didn't know such things existed. For some reason they say they won't ship to the UK, but will see if I can find something similar.

You can definitely get them in the UK, as we did...I'll see if I can find a link...
