SHASHIBO Shape Shifting Box – Award-Winning, Patented Fidget Box w/ 36 Rare Earth Magnets – Transforms Into Over 70 Shapes, Download Fun in Motion Toys Mobile App (Original Series – Spaced Out)

MY ALL-TIME FAVORITE FIDGET!
I am new to fidgets and saw a YouTube video of a woman showing this Shashibo cube. I knew I had to have it. I searched on Amazon and this was the only product that was great. However, it is kind of expensive $35 and I got 2 but well worth the money (the vid also said the same thing). I got (red) optical illusion and the blue planet on June 14, 2021, and received it on Jun. 26, 2021. I was freaking out and played with it immediately. I couldn’t let it go. It’s super satisfying fidgeting with it, the colors, clicking, and the different shapes it makes. I have been playing with the red one more than the blue as it was used to make a bigger structure but found out that you don’t really play with them both at the same time. When you are done with 1 shape you just add the 2nd shape to it. I have been showing this fidget to everyone. My husband hates fidgets and things that constantly make clicking noises. One time I went to church with my husband, on our way back home, we had an argument and instead of me being irrational & freaking out and yelling, I took out my fidget and started fidgeting, after he was done talking there was silence (I am still fidgeting at this point to the end of convo), I then replied in a calm, respectful, polite manner (which btw never happens, until now) to him. He looked at my fidget and said hmm, there might be a positive to this fidget. I am super happy, satisfied, and content. Fidgets are great for children/teens/ppl with anxiety and ADD/ADDHD/ADHD, stress and honestly, everyone can benefit from it with or without a disability. I just got 1 for my step-daughter and will in the future buy one for my 3 grandkids (1 coming) However, I have an OCD component to my ADD and do try my best to not buy all fidgets that I see. I do see a lot of vids with teens/children/adults having massive fidget collections, I would be careful to not go overboard with it. It is addicting for all ages. I didn’t know this before till now but there is such a thing as name brand fidgets. I bought no-name ones from Amazon (China), and they don’t work properly and can break. When you buy the name brand it works correctly, is more expensive, and is quality-made. There are pros and cons to all fidgets but if your child/teen needs to, they should. It helps to calm, comfort, get rid of stress and anxiety also get rid of all/most background noises/thoughts such as stimming for autism.

Nice toy to fidget with
I enjoy fidgeting with this shashibo, although I am a bit disappointed as the holographic designs on it have all disappeared and I got it less than a week ago. All in all, very enjoyable but the holographic series could be vastly improved.

Fidget Gift
This is going to be a stocking stuffer for my Grandson. One of his teachers lent him one and he just loved it. Pretty sure it will be a hit.

Keeps fingers and minds busy.
This is a great toy to keep children’s fingers and minds busy when they need to sit still or need to meditate to wind down.

Purchased this for the whole family. Some of us are better at it than others, but we all absolutely love this puzzle toy. I love how sturdy it is and the designs that it creates are just absolutely amazing. I will be purchasing again as gifts.

I’m not easily impressed. My kids always want the new “coolest” thing. Usually they’re petty mundane. At the time of writing this review, my kids have never seen one of these. My best friends told me she wants to get one for my middle child’s 8th birthday. He has high anxiety. She’s a child therapist and uses these in her play therapy. I started reading about them and watching videos and couldn’t wait for a month until my son received one for his birthday, so I ordered one for myself. I got it around noon, it’s now 5:30 and I’ve barely put it down. It’s relaxing when you’re not trying to make a specific shape and are just bending it until it falls into one. I have however been learning how to do all the shapes it can do which is super fun. I also ordered a cubendi bc I read they are more of a toy than a puzzle. I’ve barely touched that one. It’s not nearly as awesome as this one. I do not think this one is too hard for kids. I can see why the recommended age is 8, as most littles can be rough and try to force it into shapes in ways it’s not supposed to bend. But if a child under 8 is careful they would also really enjoy this. After going through 100s of fidgets in our home, I think this is the best. I’m already wanting to order more to make larger sculptures. The one I bought that is in the pictures I posted is called Vapor. They updated the print and it’s an absolutely beautiful and a relaxing print. By far my favorite. It’s so small then it arrives it looks like it can’t do as much as it can. I’ll be playing with it regularly while watching tv or when I’m idle. (I just can’t have it out around my kids until my son receives his so I don’t ruin the surprise) It is not loud but makes a very satisfying click when the magnets come together. I’m really surprised I hadn’t heard about these before and that they aren’t way more popular or widely known about. I showed my mom who is getting it as gifts for children for upcoming birthdays. It can really make you think, or just be a relaxing thing to fidget with in your hands. The movements feel amazing. I honestly can’t recommend this enough. I can’t yet say how it will hold up over time, but it feels sturdy. If I have issues with the durability, I’ll update this review to reflect that. But, if you’re looking for a fun, out of the ordinary gift for a child, teen, adult or elderly person, this is it! And the best part is, NO SCREENS!

Well made and provides for prolonged entertainment
