Can someone please tell me about wobble boards/cushions?

[5inthebed]

I've sen them mentioned a few times, what good are they and what do you sue them for?

Would one help DS2 sit in assembly?

The (NHS) OT recommended a MoveNSit cushion for my DS (ASD / Dypraxia). He uses it all the time at school. At his desk, on the carpet and I think at assembly.

I know it must be helping - because otherwise school wouldn't bother getting him to carry it to from IT / assembly etc.

It is a bumpy air filled cushion. So that they can wriggle a lot and get lots of 'movement sensation' while still sitting in one place.

As far as I can tell they are absolutely wonderful and school should be very happy to let him try it.

Thanks Indigo, off to TKMAxx today I think. :)
