It's hard for anyone to sit still, especially a group of 5 year old children, and especially kids with ADHD and sensory needs. Balance balls might be just what the doctor ordered to help children reach their full potential in the classroom, especially for those with sensory processing disorders, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, or just a strong need to fidget. In students with ADHD, sitting on therapy balls are proven to improve their ability to sit still, focus, and write more words clearly. Some kids need more movement than others. And for some kids with a sensory processing disorder or ADHD, being in motion allows their brains to be engaged. Constant movement is required in order to stay seated on the ball. And that movement, however slight, helps them focus.
