promotional pass-out.
In case you’ve been living under a rock, fidget spinners are small, ball-bearing devices that the user can rotate between his or her fingers.
Live Science says he momentum of the toy provides a pleasing sensory experience, according to user reviews, while the challenge of tossing, transferring and twirling the spinners has spawned an entire universe of instructional YouTube videos
The demand for these devices is coming from children, college students and adults who are looking to the toys to help them release nervous energy or stop fidgeting. News reports say college students specifically are gobbling them up ahead of finals, hoping they will help them focus.
Some manufacturers are marketing the products as a study aid that can be helpful for people who suffer from ADHD.
With their exploding popularity, advertisers are taking advantage of the opportunity to ride this trend into the homes and dorm rooms of their target demographic.
