The best place to start with finding the right stim toy for you is figuring out your natural stims and getting stim products that help you with the stims you already do. For example, if you chew on objects and clothing, chew necklaces could be a good fit for you.

If you prefer the feel of certain materials, like metal, silicone, or fabric, you can filter for those products under the featured section in the Fidget Toys collection and it will show you all that matches your preference.

There are several quiet fidget toys. The easiest way to find the quiet fidgets is to use the filters on the Fidget Toys collection and check the box for "quiet". It will show you only the fidgets that are quiet to use.

To measure your ring size, get a string or strip of paper and place it around your finger. Mark each end where the string and/or paper strip ends touch around your finger. Measure the distance between each marked end with a measuring tape or ruler.

You can find your ring size on the international ring size chart, along with photos on the chart showing how to measure your ring size.

Get a bowl of warm water, pour in some dish soap, and soak the spinner ring in the bowl with the warm water and dish soap for about 10 minutes to clean it. Let soak for 20 to 30 minutes in hot water and dish soap if it's stuck. Spin the spinner for a few seconds to loosen it up. Dry the ring off with a towel or paper towel when done.

I highly recommend not using oil or chemicals on spinner rings, as this will just make the spinner more rigid and cause build-up inside the ring. Hot water and some good dish soap should be enough.

Washing a plushie is easy. Get an oversized mesh wash bag and put your plushie inside the wash bag. Add it to the washing machine, add your laundry pod, and wash your plushie on delicate. Do not put it in the dryer. Lay it out flat to air dry.

I recommend using fragrance-free laundry detergent to avoid the scented smells on your plushie.

Washing the handmade Stress Mellow Squishy and Mini Weighted Frog Plush in the washing machine is not recommended, as they are more delicate. However, the Fox Plush and the Raccoon Plush are safe to wash using these directions.
