[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Get her a yoga ball to sit on. That way she can move around a bit while having to sit. My child was in OT and did all his seat work on a yoga ball. [/quote]

Sped teacher/HSer here

I love the idea of yoga balls, but in my experience, if you put a kid on a yoga ball and aren't right there, then they will stand up and stretch and the ball will roll away.  When yoga balls first became a thing, I spent a lot of time chasing stray balls in my classroom!  In my opinion, they work better if you have an adult 1:1 with the child, like in OT.  So, they might be perfect for OP if she's not also trying to work at a different computer or chase a toddler or something.  I know that we have a six year old in our homeschool this year, and I wouldn't be able to stay with her all the time.

Here are some things that do approximately the same thing and don't roll away, except the first one which is just a yoga ball with eyeballs.  The cushion at the bottom is a good cheap option, the other ones that I've tried on that list (haven't tried them all, but I've tried a lot) are good too, the cushion is just cheaper.
