Solved! No idea what this is.

My mom is a school bus driver and someone left this today. The four balls are a single piece and feel heavy for their size. The black case zips open and closed.

They're fidget balls. Popular with autistic kids. My daughter has this exact set

Autism balls?

I see the answer is fidget balls... but I would probably use these to make textures on clay! Neat, might have to look into these more.

I would guess dryer balls, but they look too small and doubtful a school age kid would be carrying them around.
