Stability ball chairs help channel kids' energy in a positive way, so they can apply more mental focus and interest in their lessons and group activities. By donating to our project, you will help us buy 24 balance ball seats to improve students' focus and success. Student attentiveness is related to movement and productivity. The tiny adjustments kids make to balance on the stability balls stimulates their brain and helps them focus. By using their core muscles for balancing, they turn on their cortex which helps them in several ways including inhibiting impulses. Research shows that students feel more focused when not sitting in hard chairs: listening is easier, they concentrate better on the task-at-hand, and collaborate more.
