I am thinking of getting these for DGS age 4 to fit into a comfy child's chair and to give him the support the chair lacks. He flops to one side and he will extend backwards, pushing his pelvis. He can support his head and trunk. No spasticity but fluctuating tone. He has a triton chair for nursery and the jenx chair has gone back from home as its outgrown, and tbh used half a dozen times in two years as he got so hot in it from extending back.
He sits better in my breezi with a seat2go insert than most things. He has a childrite from America which is good for him, it's a giant bumbo, but we are thinking comfy. Please don't mention p pod as we want him to use his hands and p pods look to me to be a lovely comfy seat to do nothing in except relax and watch TV and he does that when he is fed.. Is the soft touch seat hollowed out to stop sliding forward? Do the side supports come out enough to give good support?
