What
A set of three silicone Pick ‘Em discs designed for people who enjoy tactile “extraction” style fidgets. Each disc contains a mix of fibres that create realistic resistance when pulled with tweezers.
Why
This kit is loved by sensory seekers who crave that dig, grip, pull, release feeling, and want a hands-busy alternative to hair pulling, picking, or other repetitive habits. It can be especially helpful during study, screen time, meetings, or wind-down routines when your body wants something to do.
How
Use tweezers (most people prefer angled tweezers) to grasp a fibre and slowly pull.
Alternate between fibre types to find your preferred level of “tug” and resistance.
Take breaks if hands fatigue. This one can be surprisingly immersive.
Note: the silicone is single-use and should not be reheated.
Material:
Silicone disc
PP fibres
Nylon fibres
Dimensions:
Each disc: approx 60 mm x 10 mm
Warning:
Choking hazard. Small parts.
Not a toy. Use only as intended.
Single-use silicone. Do not reheat.
May not suit individuals who experience discomfort with clustered holes/textures after fibres are removed (trypophobia-like sensitivity).

My daughter has overwhelming sensory issues when it comes to her head and hair; this brush is a life-changer for us! It does everything they promise. Much happy, very recommend.
Store owner replied:
Thanks for your feedback 😊 The Ear Defenders are adjustable and can be extended for a larger fit. We'll email you instructions on how to adjust them, which should give you a much more comfortable fit.
Very high quality and such a great product for helping the kids feel calm.
Very nice design and the fluffy side is nice and soft. Fits nicely in my work bag so i can use it at home and work every day
It works well with other wighted blankets too for some extra pressure where its needed
It is the most beautiful rug. Just as described. My only problem is I would have liked it to be delivered by a courier other than Australia post. As I have a lot of problems with the aus post courier.
Its aethestically pleasing for the toilet. Its quite good and hygienic for kids to clean the toilet without the mess of a wet toilet brush. However it would be a good idea to consider precautionary measures to prevent kids accidentally dropping it into the loo whilst using it.
My 35 yr old daughter tried it , she said it goes very fast it’s good for core strength. We haven’t had any kids on it yet but there will be some at my Christmas party this year.
This Mat is incredible- so soft and beautiful for my high sensory boy to enjoy and help him regulate after a school day- the whole family loves it! Huge bonus it looks amazing and the colours are so neutral they match the room perfectly- Thankyou so much !
Would like it more if the penguin came with more stuffing so you can add more if that is your preference. And where are you supposed to put the weight. I paid extra for that but you can’t put it any where
Store owner replied:
Thank you so much for your feedback! 😊
The weighted bag is designed to go inside the hidden zippered pouch located on the side of the penguin, so it's easy to remove or insert as needed.
Regarding the stuffing, we really appreciate your suggestion. We intentionally designed the penguin with a softer feel, but we'll certainly take your feedback on board as we continue to develop our products.
If you're having any trouble locating the hidden pouch, please send us a message and we'd be more than happy to help.

At Sensory Assist, we prioritise the safety and well-being of all our customers, especially children with specific sensory needs. Our products are carefully selected to support diverse sensory requirements and are designed with safety in mind.
Product Selection and Safety Measures
Age Appropriateness
We ensure that our sensory toys and tools are suitable for various age groups, considering the developmental stages and safety requirements of each group.
Material Safety
Our products are made from non-toxic, durable materials to withstand frequent use and to ensure they are safe for children.
Design Considerations
We select items that match specific sensory preferences, whether they benefit from tactile, auditory, visual, or proprioceptive input, to cater to individual needs effectively.
Guidance for Parents and Educators
We recommend that parents and educators assess each child's unique sensory needs and consult with professionals, such as occupational therapists, to select the most appropriate products. This personalised approach ensures that the sensory tools chosen will effectively support the child's development and safety.
For more information on selecting age-appropriate sensory toys and creating sensory-friendly environments, please visit our Sensory Assist Blog.
If you have specific concerns or need further assistance, our customer service team is available to help you make informed choices tailored to your child's needs.
Choosing the right product for your child’s unique sensory requirements involves understanding their specific needs and preferences. Here’s how you can make an informed decision:
1. Consult with Professionals
Speak with your child’s occupational therapist, teacher, or healthcare provider for recommendations tailored to their sensory profile.
Professionals can suggest tools that align with your child’s developmental goals.
2. Understand Your Child’s Sensory Preferences
Identify whether your child is a sensory seeker (craves input) or avoider (prefers less stimulation).
For example, weighted blankets may help sensory avoiders who need calming input, while body socks might suit sensory seekers who enjoy movement and proprioceptive feedback.
3. Match Products to Needs
Look for products designed to address specific challenges, such as improving focus, calming anxiety, or encouraging movement.
Check product descriptions and reviews to understand how others have used them.
4. Start Small and Experiment
Begin with one or two versatile tools, like a weighted lap pad or fidget toy, to observe how your child responds.
Gradually introduce more products based on their feedback and engagement.
5. Consider Age Appropriateness
Ensure the product is suitable for your child’s age and developmental stage to maximise safety and effectiveness.
Check product labels or descriptions for age recommendations.
6. Safety First
Choose non-toxic, durable products that meet safety standards, especially for younger children or those prone to mouthing items.
Sensory Assist provides detailed product descriptions and specifications to help you make safe choices.
7. Ask for Help
Reach out to Sensory Assist’s customer support for personalised advice or browse their blog for tips and insights on sensory tools.
Engage with the community through reviews or forums to hear experiences from other parents.
By following these steps, you can confidently choose products that will best support your child’s unique sensory journey.
