I just looked at a video because I coach a youth team and was interested in this idea.
Looks to me like it's basically a donut that you can actually hit with, but I don't see how it's any more effective than just making them swing a heavier bat.
IMO it looks like it will temporarily improve bat speed, but with little kids it will also give them the tendency to drop their hands and swing around their body to make up for the heaviness of it, which is a much larger problem for kids than bat speed.
