I bought this to use with my ADHD students in my special education classroom. It's working great! One of my little guys could not sit for more than 3 minutes. He is now consistently sitting, working, and paying attention for 20 minutes! We love these chairs.
We ordered this about 2 weeks ago and received it last week. I had been looking for something that would help my constantly moving ds be able to focus better while doing his school work. After learning about active sitting and researching my options, I chose this chair. It is just perfect! Easy to put together and the hand pump is a breeze to pump the ball. Have refilled it once, but will do one more time this week, as I know if takes a bit to let the material stretch. Thanks for making a kid size! My 1st grader loves it and my 20 mo old thinks she need one too.
I teach kindergarten and was looking for something to help with my students who are extremely active. I did some research and thought that stability ball chairs were my answer. I bought two and immediately saw improvement in my kids behavior. I have since bought two more! I love them and so do my kids! I received my balls the day after I ordered them and customer service was EXTREMELY helpful!
I bought two of the kids chairs for my twins. They love it. I have an adult chair myself and they all the time climbing on it and wanted one. I ma happy that Gaiam makes now one for kids too. It improves posture and release the pressure for the spinal cord. The only thing that I did not like is that you have hard times inflating the ball. I had to do it like 3 times until it was right, but this does not get anything from the fact that the chair is excellent and most important the kids love it.
