Active Sitting Usually discovered during the child’s early school years when a child begins to have problems paying attention, it is more common in boys than in girls. In recent years there has been significant research in to the idea of ‘active sitting’. As the world continues to advance technologically, for some, sitting at our desks for extended periods of time has become unavoidable and it can lead to many postural and health complications.

Then in 2007 the Mayo Clinic in Rochester echoed these sentiments by finding that the ability to move around more while sitting made the students more attentive, the study believing this is due to kids being able to burn off excess energy by bouncing or moving.Children suffering from ADHD may have trouble paying attention, as well as displaying hyperactivity and being unable to control their impulses.

As mentioned, the way in wobble cushions can directly help children with ADHD is thanks to ‘Active Sitting’.

You must always inflate the wobble cushion! I know this seems like a rudimentary comment but I have been into schools before where well-meaning assistants have taken out all of the stoppers because children were playing with them. I have children report that their stopper was missing and they were still sitting on the cushion. Adults with ADHD may find difficulties organising their lives and managing time, leading to difficulty holding down jobs and relationships. Wobble cushions are a great way to stop fidgeting caused by ADHD. So not matter if you’re an adult or child with ADHD the wobble cushion can help you! Why not take a look at our very popular wobble cushion? It’s this movement, when channelled correctly that actually helps students focus. A 2008 National Education Association article featured a research study that found children need to move while performing a complicated mental task.

The base of the cushion should be stable, but when a student sits on the wobble cushion in the classroom it should move. The student should be able to move around gently as they are seated. The amount of air will also change depending on the student’s size as heavier students will need slightly more air than lighter students.

The Move and Sit Cushion features a smooth surface on one side and sensory points on the other to accommodate a person’s needs. Active sitting by its nature is friendly towards fidgeting, so for those children who can’t resist, it’s a good way of channelling their excess energy in to productive activities, as well as providing the physical benefits and reducing strain on their young bodies.Use the PhysioRoom.com Faster Blaster Dual Action Pump to inflate your Junior Wobble Cushion.
