Using the Rifton Activity Chair as an Advancement Chair

The new Medium Rifton Activity Chair replaces the Medium Advancement Chair.

The Rifton Activity Chair simplifies the lives of caregivers while empowering children to build sitting skills that will enable them to take part in more activities than ever before.

Available now in Medium—with Small, Large, and Extra Wide to follow in 2011—this ground–breaking therapy chair is built on the same concept as the Rifton Advancement Chair. All Rifton Activity Chair positioning options and prompt supports are designed to aid progress toward regular classroom seating.

The Rifton Activity Chair is MOVE™–compatible. Learn more about MOVE at www.move-international.org
