Why We Love Balance Cushions Balance cushions are a fantastic and comfortable tool for children who seek movement when seated. Suitable from birth, they are designed to help improve balance, strengthen core muscles and aid concentration. When sitting on a balance cushion, your body has to work to maintain stability (which is why they're also referred to as wobble cushions or movement cushions!), providing an "active" way to sit. The use of different textures on balance cushions provides children with the movement they are seeking in order to help them concentrate on the activity they are working on, as well as help them be more alert, focused and regulated. Balance cushions can help with gross motor activities to work on balance, motor and other coordination skills, and you can use them for floor time and tabletop activities. Our occupational therapy balance cushions are heavy-duty, inflatable PVC cushions, making them easy to clean and adjustable to suit your child's ideal comfort and stability level. They come with a free pump included with every order, so you can easily deflate or inflate your wobble cushion as needed.
