My students are 4 and 5 years old and at times have difficulty managing their bodies on the rug. They struggle with being able to sit in regular seats because they have so much energy. The chairs that we have aren't always safe for their busy bodies at the rug. These cube chairs and weighted vests will help them be able to focus and attend to lessons better because they won't have to worry about their bodies.
They need extra support to keep themselves still and sitting safely while on the rug.
The cube chairs and weighted vests help them be able to sit safely without distracting their peers.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
