This Wiggle Seat, or Wobble Sensory Cushion by Elizabeth Richards is an inflatable and dynamic seating device . The wiggle seat can be used on the floor to strengthen lower body muscles and to train for balance as well. Alternatively, get students to sit on a wiggle seat placed on top of their chair to help children who find it hard to sit still. The wiggle seat can also be used like a bosu balance trainer disk, where children can stand on the wobble cushion to practice their balance skills.
Many teachers have reported that a wiggle seat helps prevent restless children from feeling the urge to get up from their seat by helping them stay more focused on the task at hand. The wiggle seat works by allowing the child to readjust and move themselves on top of the seat in a discreet and quiet manner, using up restless energy and strengthening their core muscles at the same time.
