2. Stress Balls
Stress balls are great stocking stuffer ideas for people of any age!
When it comes to ADHD, sometimes you just need something to do with your hands. Having a stress ball can give you the ability to fidget when needing to focus on your task at hand but not get too distracted.
3. Infinity Cube
Infinity Cubes are a great gift for people who need a fidgeting outlet!
This cube is slightly different from a Rubik’s cube in that you don’t have to try and match up colors or pay attention to what you are doing.
It can be used with one hand which makes it ideal for situations like school or work.
4. Fidget Ring
Do you have an ADHD loved one who prefers to be more discreet? Fidget rings are a great idea for them!
These rings spin or have balls that spin and allow for a more unnoticeable fidgeting outlet. These would be good for a work or school environment where fidgeting needs to be less conspicuous or distracting to others.
5. Worry Stones
Worry stones are another great, discreet stocking stuffer! The person just carries the stone in their pocket and can reach in and rub the stone whenever they need stimulation or they are feeling anxious.
I have linked a couple below but if you want to be even more thoughtful, look into the different types of crystals they use to make them. Every crystal has its own purpose and you can really customize this to be specific to your loved one if you want
6. Mindful Breathing Necklace
When you have ADHD it is not uncommon to get stressed and overstimulated. This stocking stuffer is a great idea for helping to curb that.
Mindfulness necklaces were actually inspired by Japanese monks. The purpose was to incorporate mindfulness and meditation into your daily life.
To use, you inhale deeply through your nose for 4 seconds, hold for 7 seconds, and exhale through the necklace for 8 seconds.
By regulating your breathing, you can calm your mind and reduce stress and anxiety.
7. Picking Stone
Picking stones are perfect for your fidgety ADHD loved ones who may also struggle with skin picking or OCD.
You pour the latex solution over the stone and use a double-sided metal hook to pick the latex out of the stone.
While this may seem like a strange gift, it is very gratifying to a lot of neurodivergent people and is one of the best-selling fidget stones there are.
8. Sensory Strips
Sensory strips are stickers that generally have a rough tactile surface but can come in many textures.
These are used in occupational and sensory processing therapies and can help reduce poor fidgeting habits like nail biting, hair pulling, and skin picking.
These stickers can be placed on your desk, your phone, or any other surface that is easily accessible during the day.
9. Fidget pens
Do you have an ADHD loved one who works in an office setting? The fidget pen may just be the perfect stocking stuffer for them!
There are a lot of different varieties of fidget pens you can choose from out there so do your research.
I have linked a couple of the options which are a more traditional style pen and one a little more on the “crazy” side.
10. Brain Teasers
If you have an ADHD loved one in your life who loves a good puzzle, these brain teasers are for them!
This is the ultimate stocking stuffer idea as it incorporates not only a way to fidget but also a way to exercise working memory.
A lot of ADHD people just need something to take their mind off whatever they are doing sometimes and this is a great way to do it!
