Beanbags for Schools

Gone are the days of hard uncomfortable school chairs. Now your child can sit in comfort as bean bag chairs have become increasingly popular in the classroom.

Originally hitting the scene in the late 60’s, bean bag chairs have found a new home transforming the learning environment. The recent uptake in bean bag chairs for classrooms has been incredibly beneficial for children and their learning.

While maybe not a first thought for school furniture, bean bags for the classroom have tonnes of advantages.

Bean bags for schools are incredibly versatile. Whether you want to create a reading corner or have circle time with the whole class, bean bag chairs are easy to move around the classroom. The assortment of colours and sizes allows you to find a bean bag suited for any classroom and their durable material wipes clean, so no need to worry about sticky fingers.

On top of that, bean bags for the classroom have shown to enhance the learning environment. Findings from Eden Learning Spaces suggest bean bag chairs for the classroom as a way to improve children’s posture and encourage reading. Bean bag chairs provide comfortable spaces for children to relax and focus on their reading, and in turn, improve literacy levels.

It's also been seen that flexible seating in schools allow children to better engage and participate in classroom activities. Being uncomfortable can cause difficulties focusing, and often makes for fidgety kids. So, bean bags for schools make perfect sense.

Not only are the fun choice of colours adored by kids, but their air vent feature allows the bean bag to mould perfectly to your body, providing the height of comfort.
