Children's ability to quickly transition from sitting to moving suggests they possess significant energy, which can be channeled through activities like fidgeting.

“I was observing this the other day you know you'll see a kid sitting cross-legged listening in class and then all of a sudden it's time to move across the room and they'll just pop up and move across the room like when was the last time any of us like popped up out of our chairs unless we were particularly excited or scared as adults um just that immediacy to action um implies that there's a lot of energy in the system so I could imagine that having some ways to siphon off some of that energy through as far as I can tell you know um things like worry beads or or fidgets or whatever those are called”
