I’ve heard of classrooms with wobble stools and bouncing chairs. What’s the point, and does it actually help learning?
Active sitting classrooms use furniture like wobble stools, balance cushions, or standing desks that allow safe, subtle movement. The idea is that this movement helps some kids, especially those with lots of energy or attention challenges, channel fidgeting to improve focus and engagement on their work. Research and teacher reports show they can be very effective for many students.
