3 Foam Soft Seating Options for Enhancing Student Collaboration

Create a welcoming, comfortable atmosphere, encourage community and cooperation, improve the emotional well-being of students, and increase focus, productivity, and positivity with MooreCo’s three new lines of foam seating

Constellation

Shoot for the stars with whimsical celestial shapes that significantly enhance children's cognitive development and abstract thinking. These fanciful designs stimulate imagination and curiosity, encouraging children to engage in creative play and storytelling. By integrating playful, educational elements into their environment, Constellation offers a fun and effective way to nurture a child's intellectual growth while making learning fun.

As they interact with these shapes, students begin to ponder the concepts of space, astronomy, and the broader universe, sparking an early interest in science and nature. Shapes found in nature help children develop spatial awareness and recognize patterns, which are essential skills in problem-solving and critical thinking.


Respite

Lightweight foam lounges designed for young bodies offer a versatile and comfortable seating option in classrooms. The design allows for easy mobility, enabling students to create their optimal learning spaces. Ergonomically designed to reduce strain and promote physical well-being, the curved designs provide lumbar support while elevating the legs to reduce pressure on the lower back. Proper posture has been proven to improve focus and concentration in fidgeting minds and bodies.

Respite provides physical support for restless bodies and freedom for anxious minds to find relief. Practicing self-regulation techniques gives children and adolescents the tools they need to face challenges, respond to stress and pressure, and prepare for life outside of the classroom. Designate rest areas for a physical and mental boost, offer alternative seating for an inclusive, flexible environment, facilitate calming mindfulness exercises, and encourage community by sharing thoughts and ideas in a welcoming environment.

 

Tinker

Get sparks flying and gears turning with inventive seating in interlocking shapes and provide a unique and engaging way to enhance children's problem-solving and critical thinking skills. STEM-based interactive shapes encourage kids to explore concepts of mechanics and geometry as they play, fostering an early understanding of how different parts can fit and work together. The visually stimulating, tactile nature of Tinker prompts children to experiment with fitting pieces together, improving their spatial reasoning and logical thinking.

Tinker inspires creativity, as children imagine and build various configurations as a team, promoting collaboration and cooperation. By incorporating these playful yet educational elements into their environment, children develop essential cognitive skills in a fun, collaborative, and imaginative manner.
