We have made "read-anywhere" chairs from egg-crate cushioning and heavy covering materials. If using vinyl for a covering, they can also be taken outdoors to use without concern for dew or dirt. We got vinyl donated from a local "tent-maker." (This company has scraps from the wedding, picnic, event tents they make.)

I have a set of them and the kids grab them when we meet and put them away (in a wire 4 cube storage unit) when we are done. lori > > > I teach 6th grade at a LARGE (almost 10,000 students) district in > > upstate > > New York.
