We sit all day at these boring corporate desks or school desks with just a laptop and some pens, and we're expected not to fall asleep. Yeah right, OK. Well, I'm going to teach you how to freshen it up with some toys to make it a less dreadful place to sit.
1. DIY Labbit
Personally, I don't think your boss would allow you to have a plush toy at your desk, so here's a vinyl option that you can color in yourself whenever your still "coming up with ideas" for the next big meeting.
2. Peanut Eraser
Because personally, regular erasers are just too boring and wrong.
3. This is a F*cking Quote Book
Sometimes we just need some casual books on our desk to make us seem a bit more scholarly when the boss or professor walks by. I bet they would be impressed to know that you know so many eloquent quotes and your use of them in daily life.
Be honest, how much more likely is it for you to take important notes if your crayons came from a soup can? (A LOT)
This thing is just the best! Helps you hold up your phone and lend you an extra hand while you're busy multitasking, whether you're reading or want to catch up on some Netflix.
Sometimes we just need a sense of the outdoors while sitting at our gloomy small desks. This low-maintenance cactus is an easy way of adding some freshness to your old desk.
7. Made Lateral Career Moves
Sometimes, we get a little down and need some self confidence or a reminder that we are making power moves in our lives, even if they seem tiny in the grand scheme. This little ribbon will always remind you of how even the worst days are a step closer to our goal.
8. Dog Butt Magnets
How nice would it be to put up the long laundry list of chores, responsibilities, or duties you've been given by your boss, with a dog's butt? That'll really show 'em.
This little buddy will keep you company for those late nights in the office or while you're cramming for those exams. How could you not smile a bit at this little bouncy toy sitting on your desk?
10. Toysmith Desktop Catapult Toy
Ever feel the need to fling one of those to-do lists across your desk because you finally completed it after dreading it for weeks? Yeah, me too. This lets you even pass notes in the office and I'm sure your boss would appreciate it more than texts.
11. The Daily Mood Desk Flipchart
This is a personal favorite because of how useful it is for communicating with those you don't want to. Maybe you're feeling a little lazy? Put down "Apathetic" and your coworkers wont bother you the entire day!
12. Fidget Cube
Last but certainly not least, my brother's new favorite as of Christmas, the Fidget Cube. Eventually we all get ants in our pants for sitting still from 9 to 5 so this groundbreaking idea allows people to play around with six different little toys in one small cube.
