I have one autistic daughter and another with ADHD, so I was really curious to see what they would think of The Hoglet by HedgeHog Health. I had a chance to review this is a useful tool - fidget gadget and computer mouse, all in one.
My kids have different sensory needs, but this actually satisfied both of them. My younger loves to fidget, and my older likes certain physical textures. Instead of the flat trackpad or hard mouse, this had a texture that felt (and looked) cute, and provided an extra fidget opportunity.
For my younger daughter, fidgeting improves her focus. For my older, sensory input can help ground her. Both of them found that they could focus well while using this mouse, and loved the feel of it in their hands. My older one was concerned she wouldn't, but she liked it - and thought it was very cute sitting on the desk as well.
It's easy to clean, too - the cover comes off and is easy to wash (especially if your kid, like mine, still somehow always seems sticky.
