Tri-Color Bean Bag Chair: Comfortable Sensory Seating for Calming Corners and Reading Spaces
The Tri-Color Bean Bag Chair provides a soft, enveloping seat that offers gentle proprioceptive input through its conforming shape. As students sink into the bean bag, the pellet fill molds around their body, delivering calming deep-pressure contact that helps with self-regulation and decompression.
Therapeutic Benefits
- Primary sensory input: Proprioceptive — the conforming fill provides deep-pressure contact across the body, promoting a sense of security and calm
- Calming and grounding — the low, enveloping position helps students who are overstimulated or anxious feel contained and settled
- Flexible positioning — students can sit upright, recline, or curl up, finding the position that best meets their sensory needs in the moment
- Quiet decompression — a non-disruptive seating option for students who need a sensory break without leaving the classroom
Ideal For
- Settings: Calming corners, reading nooks, sensory rooms, special education classrooms, home use
- Supports students with: Autism spectrum disorder, ADHD, anxiety, sensory processing differences, difficulty with transitions
- IEP goal areas: Self-regulation, emotional regulation, sensory processing, attending to task after sensory breaks
- Size: 32 inch diameter
How to Use
Place in a designated calming area, reading corner, or sensory break zone. Bean bags work well as part of a flexible seating rotation — students can choose them when they need grounding input. The heavy-duty vinyl is easy to clean with soap and water, making it practical for shared classroom use.
For students who benefit from additional weight during seated activities, pair with a Weighted Lap Pad. Your occupational therapist can help determine how bean bag seating fits into each student’s sensory plan.
