My Project

Sensory seating helps young learners continue to move while focusing on their learning. I have had great success with the small amount of sensory seating that I have purchased on my own, but I would love to provide sensory seating for all of my students.

Scoop Chairs are great for carpet time learning, and wiggle seats are perfect for individual seating.

We currently have ball chairs for small group time that simply need replacement balls.

My active group of 5 and 6 year olds will most definitely benefit with alternative seating.
