Just got back from Zays school grabbing the “wiggle device” requested in his IEP. This can either be on his chair or the other side is for his feet to help him with distractions. We had a lot of success with using it at speech, let’s hope it helps with distance learning.

They're very helpful. We have that and a ball chair.

Oooh I thought about the ball chair too!!! That’s now on my list to try.

We have the small size one and she loves it.

How does fiddling or wobbling help with his distractions? Curious about the concept.

@jenx, nice maybe I’ll try that

@jenx I think I need one for myself. It would help with posture and building core strength on top of helping with the nervous movements?

absolutely!

He was sitting on it for his outside speech and I requested it in his IEP because it really helped him chill out more and focus on what he needed to be learning

Oooh! We have a wobble stool that is like a mushroom. I never thought to try it for the distance learning. Thanks for posting

My sons 1st grade class had what’s called “flexible seating” so they had like 8 different options for seats. This was one of them, they also had standing desks, yoga balls, floor mats, chairs with wheels and a few more options. It was really cool and the kids could pick their seats everyday. They were not assigned to a specific seat.

Oh that’s really cool. Montessori schools don’t have desks and they sit wherever they are comfortable. I saw a lot of different seating like that in the various classrooms too.
