What is a Tumble Forms Feeder Seat System?

A Tumble Forms Feeder Seat System is designed to support and provide proper positioning to a child with special needs. Its anti-microbial protection works from within to help inhibit or prevent odors. It also prevents premature coating wear caused by harmful microorganism growth which can occur during normal usage conditions. This protection will not wash or wear off, therefore, it never stops. It continually works to maintain permanent anti-microbial action so the products remain odor-free, fresher, and longer lasting.

Tumble Forms provide maximum comfort, encourage positive interaction, and are easy to move and position. They help those with a wide range of therapeutic needs, such as vestibular therapy, postural seating, therapeutic positioning, and fine and gross motor activity. Their versatility assists a caregiver to position a child in a number of ways, and can be used in home, school, or clinical settings. Their non-toxic seamless coating is flexible and durable, resists cracking and peeling over long periods of time, and retains its shape after long-term heavy use. Styles available are a Rover Stroller, Mobile Floor Sitter, Deluxe Feeder Seat, and Seat Positioner. A tray is available to transform a feeder seat into a learning environment with its flat work surface for drawing and writing.

A Feeder Seat Rover Stroller is made for child, adolescent, or adult mobility. It includes a Feeder Seat with a heavy duty chair base built for long-lasting durability. The solid frame has large 12 ½ inch pneumatic tires with front swivel wheels to roll over any type of terrain, whether going over pavement, sand, loose rock, or gravel, so that the young users can experience the world around them. The seat can be lifted out of the base and used separately at any time, and the base frame folds up with a single click to transport easily. This stroller seat tilts from the upright position to a 120 degree recline for comfort and relaxing. It is available in three sizes, which are medium, large, and extra-large, to fit any size of individual up to 6 feet tall.

A Mobile Floor Sitter includes a Feeder Seat with a mobile base to allow the caregiver to move or transport a child with special needs without repositioning. This sitter enables a child to easily move to another activity area with minimal disturbance and no need to reposition. It is ideal for those who are unable to ambulate, but are still mobile to build lower leg strength by moving themselves around. For safety, it has a four-point harness for the user. The mobile base has locking ball casters and is waterproof, washable, and urine-proof. An optional mobile base constructed from heavy-duty steel tubing is available for the extra-large Floor Sitter.

A Deluxe Feeder Seat includes a feeder seat positioner and a floor sitter wedge. The wedge can be used to keep children in a reclined or upright position that suits their activity. It can be used for any short-term activity in a clinic, home, or school, and is a good alternative to a stander or wheelchair. It features a shoulder harness with 4 inches of vertical adjustment of the straps to accommodate different heights. The seat is securely held by a Velcro hook and loop system, allowing easy and instant adjustability. The seat is available in a variety of sizes and colors to fit personal needs and tastes.

A Feeder Seat Positioner is developed for feeding, but can be employed for any other short-term activity in a clinic, school, or at home. It is easy to place a child in and out of, encourages good basic positioning without complicated adjustments, and is lightweight for easy portability. It is available in several sizes and colors, and can be used with or without a positioning wedge. It features a shoulder harness with slots to allow vertical adjustment of the straps to accommodate various heights. Its contoured interior has a 90 degree seat to back ratio for correct seating. The non-toxic seamless covering resists odors, urine, stains, and is washable.
