Gressco children's furniture offers playful learning

The bright colors and fun designs caught my eye from across the room. So I had to stop and see what was new in children's commercial furniture. Although Gressco markets to the commercial sector, so many products would be a big hit in residential playrooms. Their interactive play systems will keep kids busy for hours stimulating their minds and increasing eye-hand coordination. Gressco is know for their high quality, colorful and kid-friendly library and classroom furniture, seating and tables, lofts and play walls, and storage systems. Check out their website, http://www.gressco.com/ for more information.

Heller's ergoErgo chair offers health benefits and fun

For fun and fitness, try the ergoErgo chair designed by Alan Heller, Heller, Inc.,
http://www.ergoergo.com/. This accordian looking UV-stable recyclable technopolymer plastic chair is made with a gas injection molding process to give it stability. As a UV-resistant product, it can be used indoors or outdoors.

ErgoErgo is health inspired and can be used to strengthen core muscles, making it a useful chair for persons with back issues. An additional benefit is balance training and it keeps the blood flowing improving circulation.

ErgoErgo reminds me of the 1977 version of The Many Adventures of Winnie the Pooh when Tigger says of himself, "They're bouncy, trouncy, flouncy, pouncy, fun, fun, fun, fun, fun." How exciting it would be to bounce, trounce, flounce, and pounce throughout the day while sitting on this fun chair? I have an accordian type office chair in my home that I love. I don't sit in the chair all day but I have a lot of fun on it.

Alan Heller says, "It is a good design at an affordable price." ErgoErgo is available in four sizes, including a children's version. The three adult sizes come in warm red, black, white, and grey. Children's chairs come in the same four colors with additional red and yellow colors. More colors are planned for production. Adult chairs retail for $100 and children's chairs retail for $75. They should be available for purchase on their website in mid-July.
