Well, the big question. Do fidget spinners actually help people concentrate? Fidget spinners were made to help people concentrate and stay focused for long periods of time. Is it all just a scam. The answer is different for everyone. For some people YES it helps them stay focused and concentrated instead of thinking about something else they are able to remain still! On the other hand not so good for other people. These people will start to focus more on the fidget than the what they are supposed to be doing. It becomes a distraction for some people. that is the answer for everyone who is wondering.
