My Project

Studies have shown that giving students a choice of how they learn can increase engagement and support learning. Flexible seating allows students to quietly wiggle, wobble, and fidget, increasing focus and attention.

By providing flexible seating options, we can create inclusive environments that support the diverse needs of all children in the classroom.

These seating alternatives empower children to move and fidget in a controlled manner, enabling them to focus better and participate more actively in learning activities.

Every child is unique, so it's essential to have a variety of different options for them to choose from and to decide which works best for them. This project includes items such as spinning chairs, scoop rockers, cube chairs, bean bags, and swivel chairs.

Help me help my children to learn and grow together while allowing them the movement and flexibility they need to succeed!
