They love that they are able to wiggle and move around when they must stay seated. The bean bags are also a great incentive for good behavior. I have used the bean bags to help with behavior and focus. If students are amazing, they are allowed to use the bean bags. Students are awesome at taking turns as well. \r\n Thank you so much for your donation to my classroom. It has been a wonderful addition to our classroom. They make the room feel more cozy too.
