Fidgets… More Than Meets the Eye!
At first sight fidgets are often seen as toys but fidgets can be terrific tools! When used properly, they can help a child with self-regulation and can be used in all settings. They help support an individual’s need for movement and tactile input that is often crucial for many children. Fidgets can help with focus, attention, active/whole body listening and calming. When using fidgets it’s important to consider setting clear expectations with your child that make sense for your family. Below are a some examples:
· Fidget tools must be used appropriately.
· Fidget tools should be used as tools and not toys.
· Fidget tools should be used in a manner that does not distract others.
· When not being used, fidgets must be put in their designated area.
· Fidget tools should not interfere with your ability to learn or complete tasks.
There are many different types of fidgets, such as glitter bottles, kinetic sand, items with a variety of tactile surfaces, stress bands and stress balls. These items can be purchased, but many of them can be made or found at home too! Please take a look at some of the fidget tool ideas we have provided to see what may be helpful for your family! Fidget tools can be great for people of all ages, adults included!

ATTENTION 5TH GRADE PARENTS/GUARDIANS
If your child has not already received the Tdap vaccine, work with your pediatrician or primary care provider to schedule the vaccine. Many local pediatricians and family care providers will be restarting (if they haven’t already) well child appointments and will be completing necessary immunizations. Record the date of the immunization in the appropriate box on the student immunization record link below and sign the form. The state of Wisconsin allows for waivers for immunization due to health, religious, or personal conviction reasons. To do so, follow the instructions on the student immunization record and sign the form. All signed forms can be emailed, faxed or dropped off at school (when our school buildings reopen).
If you have any questions, please contact Lori O’Neil, District Nurse at lori.oneil@franklin.k12.wi.us
