Current research supports the use of alternative seating options, like Hokki stools, in the classroom. The research suggests that seats that allow "just enough" movement can help children learn more effectively. This sensory processing approach provides students with opportunities to adjust sensory input while maintaining expected behaviors within the class. For my students, this means that rocking and twisting on a stool while sitting at their desks helps them complete their work. Additionally, Hokki stools improve students' core strength and balance. When students practice and improve their core strength every day through alternative seating options, their bodies are more prepared to learn. Hokki stools are a wonderful seating option to strengthen student's bodies and brains!
