Our Fidget Apron

We made research-based fidget aprons to help elderlies relieve their anxiety.

Our founder, Naphat, went to an elderly home in Bangkok to test the prototype and made modifications based on the feedback. 

​

After 1 month of use, 89% of the surveyed elderlies felt that they slept better, 62% felt an improvement in their anxiety and 72% felt an improvement in focus and concentration.
