Five Hand Tools with Different Resistance and Tactile Options
A portable set for squeezing, stretching, gripping and keeping hands purposefully busy.
The Kaiko 5-Piece Hand Grip Set brings together five different hand tools in one compact kit. Each piece offers a different type of resistance or texture, making it easy to switch between firmer squeezing, finger extension, textured grip work and softer fidgeting.
Five different tools in one set
The kit includes an adjustable hand grip, finger stretch tool, textured grip ring, fabric Extreme Squishy and finger and hand exerciser. Use them one at a time and choose the resistance or movement that feels most comfortable.
Useful for everyday hand movement
The varied shapes can be used for repetitive squeezing, stretching and general hand exercise, or simply as hands-busy fidgets during work, study or downtime.
Portable for home, school or work
The compact pieces are easy to keep in a desk, bag or sensory kit, giving teens, adults and older children several hand activities without needing bulky equipment.
How to use them
Start gently and use only a comfortable level of resistance. Take breaks if your hands become tired and stop if you experience pain, numbness, cramping or increased discomfort. For rehabilitation, injury recovery or a diagnosed hand condition, follow advice from a qualified health professional. Recommended for ages 8+.

Kaiko Fidgets began in 2017 when the creator, Kai, saw a lack of fidget styles and designs in the Australian market. He needed them for himself, as he struggled with dyslexia and autism. By the age of 11, he started to make designs with the help of his mother. One of his first designs was a metal fidget, which quickly became popular in his area.
The family began Kaiko Fidgets after seeing a business opportunity. Its name is a combination of Kai and his younger brother, Kobi, and the company showcases the siblings’ favourite colours within the brand. With the help of their parents, they have been able to develop different types of fidgets and toys to help special needs children.
With a careful selection of products and materials, each product can assist with a person’s daily life. For example, some tools are for harm minimisation, while others give a soft and soothing feeling. Other products are similar to the fidgets, providing rhythmic stimming, which helps against anxiety. The goal is to provide support to a wide range of needs.
FAQs
Keeping the fidgets sanitised.
They are fine to wipe , the trick is to wipe excess moisture off them. If left wet/damp they can rust in appearance a little but generally does not affect function. Wiping with an antibacterial wipe or damp cloth then drying off thoroughly is the key.
To shorten necklace:
Simply cut and retie knot at each end to the desired length & pull knot back into the casing of the clasp. We find the easiest way to find optimum length is to have arms at right angle across belly. The bead length should be about at this height.
