This week I'm diving into some sneaky reasons why some sensory kids might be wigglers that have nothing to do with needing more movement. Prepare to get your mind blown as I break down the connection between core strength, posture, and focus. I'll also give you tons of do's and don'ts for supporting these kiddos in the classroom. By the end you'll be armed with all the deets to help your little learner shine without extra distractions. 

You’ll learn:

- The hidden connection between core strength, posture, and attention abilities 

- Common signs that weak core muscles may be to blame for fidgety behavior

- Why approaches like weighted vests or inflated seating options can backfire

- Practical seating solutions and positioning tips to support learning
