Summary/Abstract: Development of children and youth during ontogenesis occurs in various spheres and at different rate. Learning about the rules that regulate this development and opportunities for positive stimulation that result from this knowledge are subject of research and investigation for representatives of both, science and practice. Stimulation of development of children and youth in school age, primarily pre‑school and early school, deserves special attention. The proposed two‑aspect solution involves:– use of special set of school furniture “Kivak” during school education period,– performing balance exercises with the furniture set.The described possibilities may positive influence not only children’s body posture (through developing the balance habit) but also development of other features such as, among others, coordination, attention, concentration, precision of moves and senses like sight and hearing.
