#DidYouKnow that children sometimes wiggle and move around when they have trouble focusing while they’re sitting and doing work or activities?
Sometimes active sitting can make life so much easier for them. So, a little wiggling or moving may just be what they need to focus. Sometimes a child’s constant wiggling in a chair can be mistaken for misbehavior. #childbehavior.
As a teacher #onthego I’m always looking for amazing products to introduce to my students. I found a great product called the #WiggleSeat created by @bouncybands.

Hey, come on over. Let me tell you a little bit about the Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat and their Fun
Shape Wiggle Seat. The Wiggle Seat was created to help children focus and to decrease some of
that wiggling. So what makes the Wiggle Seat and the Fun Shape Wiggle Seat from Bouncy Band
so special? Let me ask you a question. Have you ever found yourself just questioning why your
child won't sit still? Or if you're a teacher, why your student is wiggling and wiggling and
all about during story time or maybe when they're sitting down for an activity or
trying to complete their homework? Well, let me tell you about the Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat.
This product was created to help children with all of that wiggling. To help children with all
of that wiggling. The Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat is an inflatable sensory cushion. Let me tell you a few
key facts. Number one, the Wiggle Seat can be used in a chair or on the floor. Children can place
this in a children-sized chair or place this on the floor when they're participating in circle
time in school or maybe they're listening to story time at home or trying to complete their
homework and get through it. This seat can be placed on a chair or on the floor. Number two,
the Wiggle Seat can help children to increase their focus when they are participating in
activities or doing homework. When children are sitting, they express energy. They move about,
they move around and the Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat can actually help them to wiggle, move around in
their seat without disturbing anyone else. Number three, the Wiggle Seat can help children to calm
with tactile stimulation. On one side, you'll see these flexible nubs and on the other side,
there are smaller, smaller bumps. So the child can decide the amount of tactile stimulation they need
and that works for them. One side with the nubs and one side with the bumps. Now when you get your
Wiggle Seat and take it out of the box, it's already inflated just like this. So your child
may need it to be a little firmer and you can do that. You can adjust it with your own inflatable
pump that comes with the Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat. Every Bouncy Band Wiggle Seat comes with its own
inflatable pump. So you can use this pump to adjust it to the firmness that your child needs
and that they like. Number five, the Wiggle Seat can help children with their posture.
Ergonomic discs cause the body to naturally stabilize itself. So while your child is sitting
on the Wiggle Seat, they are going to balance themselves and adjust their body to stabilize
and that will help with posture. So overall, the Wiggle Seat and the FunShape Wiggle Seats from
Bouncy Band are a great addition to any home or any classroom because they can help your child
in so many different ways and in so many different areas. Now that you've learned more
about the Wiggle Seat from Bouncy Band and the FunShape Wiggle Seat from Bouncy Band,
what's your favorite? I mean, I have the basketball, the butterfly,
and the classic round Wiggle Seat, but there are more. What's your favorite Wiggle Seat?
