I know what you mean about people that can't sit still. I try to take my nephews turkey hunting alot and they don't like sitting still very long. I have a vest that is self supporting, it has straps that go from the cushion to the back of the vest, I guess it is a redhead vest it came from bass pro. I have found that little kids(people that can't sit still) are very comfortable with this style vest, they even make just a cushion that is self supporting that way their back isn't pressed into a hard tree. You might want to give one of these cushions a try.
