About Us

We are a family owned and operated business. We have 2 sets of twins, with 2 children on the Autism spectrum, one of whom also has an intellectual disability.

It was in 2012 that our younger son was diagnosed as ‘non verbal autistic’ and having very little knowledge of Autism prior to that we have embraced being a special needs family and work hard every day to ensure all of our children are equipped for the day ahead.
Early in 2017 our occupational therapist, along with the school suggested we buy some fidget toys for one of our children to assist with his growing frustrations at school. We purchased a pack of items online and some worked for him and some didn’t, but he didn’t know what he wanted until he was able to see and touch the items.

We decided we wanted to support the families of Bendigo to have a place they could come to and be able to see and touch the items, just as our son wanted to do and the frustration of having to purchase so many items when some he will never use is how the idea of Fidget Kids was born. Somewhere that you can purchase the items that will work for you and your children. And we wanted to do so in a place where you could feel comfortable and safe - we have been on the receiving end of the judgemental part of society. Unfortunately due to COVID-19 we have had to change to online sales only but rest assured our products are of fantastic quality and at great prices and we are confident you will find what you need in our collection.
We have a fantastic range of fidget toys, sensory toys, chewy/oral toys and other toys some of which can just be a treat for your child and some that will support teaching your children to share and can assist with speech. We have a great range of products, but if there is an item you are looking for that we don’t yet have, let us know and we will do our best to source the item for you.

For online orders we post Australia wide as well as internationally, but for orders placed within the Bendigo area we provide delivery.

My name is Leanne and I hope we can do our best to help our fellow special needs families.
