During the school day, in most classrooms, students have to sit in uncomfortable chairs, with harsh fluorescent lighting, and barely any comfort. When they come to my office for a counseling session, I want to make sure that they are as comfortable as possible. These chairs, stuffed animals, and pillows will provide comfort for them - along with a little inspiration. The lighting options will provide a less harsh fluorescent environment. Who doesn't love a good teddy bear when they're feeling down?! These items will help turn a simple office into a wonderful "calming corner" and I know my students will love coming to visit!
