Therapy balls have been used for years to help students with special needs to focus. As an Occupational Therapist, I have seen them help while they are sitting on the ball, but there is always the concern that the student may fall off! This can be dangerous, distracting and defeats the purpose - who can focus when they are falling on the ground? I want to get these therapy/yoga balls with the chair support/back so the students can benefit from the movement of the therapy ball with the support and safety of the chair frame. I would like to start by getting 3 chairs, but would eventually like to get 7 more, so that our self-contained classroom has one for each student! Please help us reach our goal! Thank you.
