Due to the demands being put on education, my students aren't able to move as often as they should. These stools will allow them the movement they seek. This movement will provide both physical and mental benefits for the students. This much-needed movement will release good chemicals to wake up the brain and allow optimal attention and concentration. Thinking and learning will be improved by physical aerobic movement. This will also promote proper posture and improve balance and coordination. By giving the students the opportunity to move, we are giving them the opportunity to succeed. These stools will help create the best learning environment for each child.
