Fidget Toy - The newest Toy Craze


The Origin
Did you know that the popular fidget toy or fidget spinner was invented by a woman, her name is Catherine Hettinger. In addition to that, its patent was approved 20 years ago, way back in 1997.
When she heard of young boys throwing rocks at police officers and passers-by when she was in Israel, that was when wheels started spinning in her head. She wanted to divert their attention.
“It started as a way of promoting peace, and then I went on to find something that was very calming,” said Hettinger.
And so her ingenious invention came to be. Her main objective was to divert young children and provide them a soothing toy to play with.
Hettinger expressed that the sudden boom in popularity may have been rooted to the recession in 2008, and so people looked for a way to calm their nerves and have fun at the same time.
“That was always the concept — to help people,” said Hettinger . “I experienced it for myself."
