These colorful READING chairs will help our SPECIAL NEEDS LEARNERS and their friends read and relax at the same time. Often, our children are rolling on the dirty floor and bent over, and this looks so uncomfortable and during COVID, unsanitary. These comfy colorful cushions and chairs will invite our children to RELAX as they read their age appropriate books. As we teach these little 4 year olds about feelings, being kind, and respecting others at school, home, and at the playground through actions and independent literacy time we want them to help engage and practice these skills through imagination and pre-reading time.
