Description
Inflatable wobble cushion with textured nubs on one side and a smooth surface on the other. Allows controlled movement while seated to help kids stay focused. Fits on any standard classroom chair.
Why it helps
Vestibular and proprioceptive input from subtle movement helps regulate arousal levels. Kids who need to move to focus can channel that need through the wobble cushion without disrupting the classroom, keeping their vestibular system engaged while they learn.

- Pump included for easy inflation adjustment
- Fits standard classroom chairs

Cons
- Can deflate slowly over time and needs re-pumping
