So how did fidget spinners become popular? Let's take a look at some of the reasons why fidget spinners have become so popular and widespread.
Some people like to spin them quickly, while others prefer to spin them slowly and methodically. Fidgeting with a fidget spinner can help you focus on a task, or it can simply provide a way to release excess energy.
What are Fidget Spinners?
When fidget spinners became popular they were small, handheld devices that you can spin around. They usually have two or three blades that you can spin independently of each other. Fidgeting is a common behaviour among people who are anxious or stressed, and fidget spinners provide a way to help relieve that stress. Do they Actually Work?
There is some debate on whether or not fidget spinners actually work to relieve stress and anxiety. Some people find them helpful, while others don't seem to notice a difference. The jury is still out on this one, but some anecdotal evidence suggests fidget spinners can be beneficial for people who struggle with anxiety or stress. In 2015 there was a study done by the Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology. The study found that 8-12 years olds with ADHD performed better in certain tests when they were moving their limbs in some way. This means that fidget spinners could actually be a benefit to those with ADHD. With this research in mind, it is very obvious why fidget spinners became popular in such a short space of time.
Who Was Responsible for Their Creation?
Fidget spinners were actually invented back in the 1990s by an inventor named Catherine Hettinger. Her original intention was to create a toy that would help children with ADHD and autism calm down and focus. However, fidget spinners only started becoming popular in the past few years. 
The Power of Social Media and How They Helped Explode Fidget Spinners
As with many things these days, social media has played a big role in the popularity of fidget spinners. Videos of people doing tricks with fidget spinners quickly went viral, and before long, everyone wanted to get their hands on one.Many celebrities were seen with fidget spinners, which also helped to increase their popularity. Fidget spinners quickly became a must-have item, and everyone from kids to adults wanted one.

So, who was responsible for the invention of the pencil? The
answer is a bit complicated. It is clear that Nicholas-Jacques
Conte played a major role in the development of the pencil, but
there were other people involved as well. The Chinese also deserve
credit for their early use of graphite, and Joseph Priestley's
work was instrumental in the development of the modern pencil.
Ultimately, the invention of the pencil is a story of
collaborative effort and cross-cultural exchange.
Although the pencil has evolved over time, the design and function
of the modern pencil is largely based on Nicholas-Jacques Conte’s
18th century design. If you want to get your hands on a custom
