The Speks Gump Loop 3-Pack is a set of three ring-shaped memory gel stress balls that give busy hands something calm and satisfying to squeeze. Each loop has a super-soft TPR outer shell and a smooth maltose gel filling that squishes under pressure, then slowly bounces back into shape. It offers the feel of slime without the mess, making it a practical fidget and sensory tool for children, young people and adults, including learners with SEND.

How the Gump Loop helps

Many children and young people with special educational needs find it easier to settle, listen and stay regulated when their hands have something to do. A quiet, repetitive squeeze gives steady sensory feedback without noise or distraction for others. The open ring shape is easy to grip, loop over fingers or pass from hand to hand, and the slow rebound of the gel encourages calm, unhurried movements. With three loops in every pack, there is one for school, one for home and one for the bag.

For schools

• Quiet in the classroom. The soft gel makes no noise, so it can be used during lessons, carpet time and independent work.
• Supports SEND provision. A simple sensory tool to include in calm boxes, regulation stations and individual support plans.
• Three per pack. Useful for small groups, intervention rooms or keeping spares for a pupil who needs one in several places.
• Wide age range. Suitable from age 3, so it works across EYFS, primary and secondary settings.

For parents and home use

• Calmer homework time. Something to squeeze can help a child stay at the table and work through a tricky task.
• Easy to take anywhere. Pop one in a school bag, coat pocket or car for journeys, waiting rooms and busy places.
• Mess-free squish. All the satisfying feel of slime, kept safely inside a soft outer shell.
• Easy to care for. Wash with soap and water if it gets grubby, then let it dry.

Supporting SEND and learning differences

Fidget and sensory tools are widely used across UK schools to support children with a range of special educational needs and learning differences, particularly those who benefit from movement or touch to stay focused and regulated. The Gump Loop is not tied to any single diagnosis. It is a simple, flexible tool that can sit alongside other strategies as part of everyday support at home or in the classroom.
