Specialty retailers looking to score the interest of kids and budget-minded parents have some new options to consider from Tangle.

The new Tangle Phone Fidget is priced at just $10 and functions as a 3-in-1 accessory. It’s a fidget, a phone stand, and a therapy device that can help calm and bring focus to kids, especially those with ADHD.

Of course, the back-to-school season also comes on the cusp of football season, and Tangle’s NightBall has a fresh offering to help kids and families light up the night.

The ball is built with interior super bright pulse LEDs that light up as the ball travels in flight. It is also water-resistant and floats. Tangle says that it’s made of a latex-free, phthalate-free, and non-toxic TPR material. Tangle offers its footballs in retail-ready PDQ counter displays.
