Gaiam Kids Stay-N-Play Children's Balance Ball, Flexible School Chair Active Classroom Desk Alternative Seating, Built-In Stay-Put Soft Stability Legs, Includes Air Pump, 45cm, Green Crazy Silly

First my daughter’s cousin got one of these to do her homework on. Then my daughter became obsessed with it and we got her this one. Then the other cousin saw that and wanted her own. Now they all have one and they are found either playing with them together or just balancing/bobbing while sitting or laying on them all over the place 😂 They are very good quality- I was worried that for the price I was going to get some cheap plastic nonsense but these are very sturdy and have held up against a lot of abuse from all the kids 😂 Highly recommend them for play AND for their intended purpose- kids can definitely let out their nervous energy while just sitting in one place on them. Next we’re going to order the peanut-shaped one and see how that goes. Our whole house is going to be filled soon, wish us luck 😁

I bought one of these for one of my grandkids for us to test it and make sure that it wasn’t gonna pop or be on usable. I like the quality so much I ordered another one so they both have one now. They absolutely love bouncing on these all day long.

Love it for my students. I teach 3rd grade.

Nice for the price but wrinkles would not come out

Get for little kids. My 9 year old nephew loved it but my 10 1/2 year old nephew was too big for it.

Very active son needed some motion to focus on His virtual school. This gives just enough to maintain his focus! Will be asking his teacher if it can go to school if him if they ever return.

Great for my first grader! He is a remote learner and the wiggles are real. This helps him move and stay focused.

March 2021 edit: Gaian has since sent a new ball after reaching out to customer service. So far, so good. The only other thing I will say is that the representative responded with note saying that I should keep sharp objects away and pointing the blame squarely at me. I thought that was a bit presumptuous - as mentioned below, my son isn’t abusive and he’s only using it during school and not dragging around the house or outside. And these micro holes - well, I don’t even know what my child could have done to get these. So that response I thought was a bit off-putting. But they did send a replacement in a reasonable amount of time so I changed this from 1 star to 3 stars. Deducting for, in my opinion, unnecessary customer service commentary.Original review:Lasted only 2 months before small holes appeared (see pictures). While my kid isn’t gentle, he doesn’t abuse this. This is definitely not as durable as a yoga ball.Also, I really don’t understand the point of the legs, they’re only useful to keep the ball from rolling when no one’s on it. Once you sit on the ball, the legs completely compress. Would rather have a base that holds the ball.The only positive is that this was the right size for my 6 year old. Worked well with his small child desk.All in all, not a worthwhile purchase and can not recommend this product. I am reaching out to Gaiam Customer Service to see if they will help with this. Depending on their response, I will update my review.
