“Pop it” toys can be helpful when they’re not distracting
I have purchased over a dozen different “pop it” toys for my toddler, and I can confirm that these things are loud when you want them to be. The popping mechanism alone can do wonders to drive your desk partner to pull out their hair. And these toys are easy to make, so they’ve become pretty commonplace: you can find everything from a purse to a pencil pouch covered in the pop-its motif. Some teachers have taken back the pop-it by figuring out how to incorporate them into their lesson plans.
