How well would this ball hold up as a chair in a fourth-grade classroom?

My daughter used it for half a year in third grade. It worked great. Just make sure the teacher has extra pumps because all of the balls needed more air at times.

well, given that it has easily removable limbs attached to ball joins, I would say no. BUT - there are others that are cheaper and much sturdier that you can find on Amazon and they will hold up well to the kind of play activities 11-year olds will put them through. Hope this helps.

I think this chair would work wonderfully as a homework chair! We love the Tripp Trapp chairs and have purchased one for each of our four children. That was not our original intention, but since you can adjust the chairs, as the kids have grown (our oldest is 8/3rd grade and still uses it), the chairs have been able to grow with them. Definitely recommend!

well it is quite sturdy and has a broad base so it should hold up fine...except on sand you can't bounce the balls off the ground, of course. Have fun

Well, for us mainly the kid used it were smaller. But this thing is really solid, I suspect it would hold up quite well.

it will hold up, for the price it is a good ball. It is harder than most of the soccer balls we have purchased though

There's a good possibility it could. The firmness of the ball will also play a role in the total height of the chair. Good luck!

Yes, you sit on it but that would be best if you have it full of stuff.We used it for board games, Little kids are fine to sit on it, crawl in it, over it....~ they just love it! As far as exact amount of weight? I dont know for sure, I would not recommend as a long term sitting solution. This would in no way replace a couch but if your just sitting to put on your shoes, it is perfect!

I used it to put plastic balls in it for my toddlers ages 2-3years old. Comfortably 4 toddlers could fit in it at once.

I've seen my students (all sizes) use it and so far, so good. It's low to the ground but it's pretty comfortable.

It is durable enough for my daughter who is only 25 lbs and I think it should be good for a few years. That said, it is not the most durable piece of furniture so I don't think it would hold up well for bigger kids as I believe it was assembled with glue/tape and a few screws.

It's stable. My 3 & 4 yr old boys play on it all the time. We haven't had any problems.

Probably not, the base of the chair may not allow for a larger sized ball. the chair has adjustable legs.

Quite a bit if it's outside in the sun etc. but not to the ground if that's what your wondering. I have 4 boys and lot's of friends sitiing in those chairs and they last about a year being outside all year arounbd. Hope that helps!

Yes, it is sturdy enough, but don't know how it would hold up to the elements for extended periods. We used it along the sidelines and it worked well even on windy days. We used it for high school varsity and it always stayed upright.

If assembled correctly, the legs are pretty sturdy. It has held all the pieces it came with, plus at least an additional 50 toy trains. As long as your kids aren't jumping on top of it, it should be fine.

No and the ball would likely only be good for a small child under 4. It's pretty small.
