Finally!!! A sturdy footrest for children that grounds them like nothing else has!! Jett Step is a footrest that was invented by Dr. Elizabeth A. Perlstein, MA PT, DPT to correct the posture of a student who was distracted by his legs dangling in the chair, and kept kicking away all the footrests placed under him for support. Footrests are important for children when they are sitting, to prevent feet from dangling. Children have better postural support when their feet are resting flat on a surface. Better postural support helps children stay seated properly on a chair, increases their focus and attention, and improves their fine motor coordination and their handwriting skills. With the Jett Step, the legs of the chair are planted firmly inside the designated space within the foot rest, this prevents the child from kicking away the Jett Step, and results in children who actually stay seated firmly on their chair. It is an easy item to have around because it stays next to the chair. Jett Step is available in different sizes to accommodate chairs for children of all ages.
