Description:

For children who seek movement while sitting, a rocking seat offers a different experience from a stationary chair. The Special Supplies Sensory Rocking Chair combines gentle back-and-forth motion with a padded cushion and headrest pillow, giving children a comfortable place for seated activities and sensory breaks.

Parents and caregivers can create a reading spot or add a movement option to a home sensory space. Educators and therapists can offer the rocker as a supervised seating choice during stories, quiet activities, or breaks between tasks. It is a practical option for children with special needs who enjoy rocking as part of their everyday routines.

Size and fit

Recommended for children ages 3–8, with a maximum weight capacity of 88 lb. Consider both your child’s size and their seating needs when choosing the chair.

The rocker’s footprint is approximately 33 inches long × 15 inches wide. The width refers to the whole rocker, not just the seat. Allow additional clear space for rocking.

Construction and contents

The rocker has a sturdy metal frame with fabric seating and padded cushioning. Each box includes one rocker, a padded cushion, and a headrest pillow. Assembly is required.

Cleaning and storage

Wipe the frame with a damp cloth and mild soap. The fabric cushion can be hand-washed or machine-washed using mild detergent. Avoid bleach and harsh or abrasive cleaners.

Allow all parts to dry completely before use or storage. Store indoors in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight.

Safe use

Use with close adult supervision, one child at a time, on a hard, flat, non-slip floor. Do not allow standing on or jumping off the rocker.

Keep the chair away from stairs, sloped surfaces, water, and heat sources. Keep fingers, toes, and hair clear of fasteners and moving parts. Check for loose hardware or damaged parts before each use, and follow the assembly and safety instructions.

Do not exceed 88 lb. Not suitable for adults or children under 3. 

Assembly

Assembly is required. The kit includes small hardware that can pose a choking hazard. Keep loose parts away from children during assembly.
