We use it for community circle daily, where we build our classroom culture of respect and kindness. We use it for independent reading time to lounge out on.

They were thrilled to have flexible seating options, and even more thrilled that there was a wobble stool for everyone—a whole-class set! That inclusivity meant the world to them.\r\nBeyond the excitement, the stools have had a noticeable impact on student focus and engagement during work time. Many of my students benefit from the gentle movement the stools allow—it helps them stay centered and more attentive as they work at their desks. It's clear that having the freedom to move in a controlled way helps meet their sensory needs without being disruptive.\r\nThank you again for investing in our classroom and in our students' success.
