Playing with toys used to be a pastime that was strictly for children, but these sculptural toys have been created with adults in mind to help them relax and think back to their youth.
Coming in three style options, the first is a maze toy that encourages users to test the flexibility of their wrist, while the second is a spinning top filled with your choice of oil and the third soothes with soft bristles. Each one creates an interesting sensory experience that will be enjoyable for anyone who's looking for a way to destress and take some time to play, which has been touted to have great benefits for those who are stressed out.
